Simple luxury, without fanfare, natural, tailored and highly personalized. Madrid-based Luis Puerta Estudio‘s work is refined, carefully curated with an emphasis on natural materials and unique pieces.

Rooms and the furniture in them are allowed to breathe, to occupy their space without clutter, to stand alone yet together. What could easily progress to maximalism is instead a celebration of light and restraint.
