Marbo Shirt Studio
With over 35 years’ experience, George Marbo is a master craftsman.

The front desk has a raw iron façade with a laser cut logo, corresponding to a Corten steel column and a library with an iron wire mesh front. The building materials were deliberately used as a hint of the nature of the firm's work.
Wooden decorative lighting fixtures illuminate the entrance area, alongside a bare block wall. Behind it is the kitchen and dining table.
The kitchen was designed in a cozy home sty... More
