ABOUT
Founded in 2020 by designer Nicolau dos Santos and art director Stephanie Blanchard, IAMMI lives at the intersection of classic and contemporary. “Where timeless ideas find their home” is not just a motto: it reflects an approach that values coherence, durability, and purpose, far from fleeting trends.
The studio operates across three interconnected dimensions, all permeated by the same visual and material language. Products and collectibles emerge from internal research that challenges conventions through bold and unexpected combinations and take the form of limited editions, unique pieces, or commissions. Spatial design translates the IAMMI vision into physical experiences, temporary or site-specific, where materials, volumes, and atmosphere engage with those who inhabit them. Artistic direction and consultancy bring the same conceptual approach to external projects, guiding brands, institutions, and private realities toward a coherent and distinctive language, an expression of identity and character.
IAMMI balances thought and matter, intuition and discipline, research and practice, where design is authored yet tangible, inviting a reevaluation of traditional notions through subversion and emotional depth.
