Founded in 2017 by Martín Diego Salido-Orcillo, ACOOCOORO is a furniture, lighting and artifacts studio, a lab, focused on aesthetic and historical research, on objects' narrative and emotional relation with individuals and space.
Every object, every piece, more than a product in a collection, is the result of exploration and experimentation through materials, processes and artisanal work. These elements fill every one of them with history, stories and memories: those of the individuals that conceive and create them, and those of the people that live their lives through and with them.
Silent Design, finally, is a guiding principle in ACOOCOORO's practice, whenever the collaboration with artisan groups is involved, with a complex yet clear goal: the establishment of non-extractive, cooperative, self-sufficient relations, where craftsmanship, economic benefit, authorship, property, and narrative are reclaimed by and rebalanced in favor of the artisans themselves, and not the designers.
