About

Oscar Diaz Studio is a London based design studio working in the field of Industrial design.
We believe design stands right between culture and commerce, and culture informs everything we design.

Our approach is practical, hands-on, and collaborative. The studio work is characterised by a plain, playful and innovative take on everyday objects.

The studio doesn’t has a style, favourite material or formula, and consider design as a craft, where the combination of materials, processes and behaviours make an object.

It is the attention to the context of the project, that allows us to work at both ends of the design spectrum. Past commissions include both limited edition pieces (made together with craftsmen) and mass-produced objects, developed in close collaboration with manufacturers in Europe and Asia.

We have designed window displays for Hermès (Tokyo & Singapore) and sustainable and educational toys for Muji. A set of hand crafted vases to symbolise the brand and connect it with new audiences for Veuve Clicquot . Kitchen utensils, STEM toys, bags, candle holders, tableware, clocks, connected devices, packaging... amongst other things.

Get in touch if you thing we can help with a product or project.
