Ries is a design studio founded in Buenos Aires in 2016 by Marcos Altgelt and Tasio Picollo. Driven by the curiosity to explore different materials and their techniques, their approach to practice is influenced by the mixed experience of their team, who, through a collective vision, manage to combine processes linked to craftsmanship and industry to create pieces that seek to elevate the experience of everyday living.
Navigating between aesthetic simplicity and problem-solving complexity, their work spans various fields, ranging from the design of small objects to interior design projects, as well as the creation of unique pieces and serial production.
They have showcased their work in exhibitions and fairs in the United States, Europe, and Latin America. They have also been featured in major international media outlets such as the New York Times, Architectural Digest, Vogue, Wallpaper*, among others.
