Olga Makinze
“ÜM Studio is a creative space where Japanese and Scandinavian design philosophies unite into a single expression of calm, simplicity, and natural beauty.”
Olga makes ceramics and candles by hand in the south of Spain, in small batches, and runs the workshop herself. The range covers cups, plates, incense holders, spoon rests and scented candles poured into cups you keep. Some of it is quiet and some of it is not: a cup with a croissant stuck to the side, a plate shaped like a slice of toast, espresso cups pinched into shape by hand rather than thrown. All of it is meant for daily use rather than a shelf, and because no glaze comes out twice the same, no two pieces match perfectly.
