MAALO

/məˈɑːləʊ/:

Denoting to a place of rest/haven at the end of a journey.

At MAALO, the essence of design is deeply personal and rooted in the meaning of its name: a place of rest at the end of a journey.

Founded by Nathan Maalo and Jay Miah, British-born designers of Eritrean descent and Bengali descent, the studio reflects the convergence of cultures, traditions, and life experiences to bring about a bespoke vision.

Design Philsophy

Identity

Our design philosophy centers on uncovering the deeper layers of identity to create spaces that truly resonate. We believe that thoughtful, authentic design begins with understanding the unique culture, brand, and purpose of each client and their project.

Objective

By delving into these elements, we craft spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but are also deeply connected to the values and objectives that define each project.

Story

Our approach is rooted in the idea that every space has the potential to tell a story, creating a bespoke environment that is as meaningful as it is beautiful.

Innovation

With a commitment to authenticity and innovation, we tailor each design to embody the distinct character and vision of those who inhabit it, transforming spaces into experiences that are as unique as the people who live and work within them.
