KNOW MORE ABOUT THE DESIGNERS:

HW Studio's office is located where just recently were the wood drying ovens of Señal furniture factory owned by Don Shoemaker, one of the most important Mexican furniture designers of the 20th century.

When the factory closed, the ovens remained abandoned and we thought it was a good idea to occupy and revamp them to develop our studio inside.

The space was divided into two areas, which we joined through a wide transition linking the technical work area to the conceptual work area.
