E. Murio is a furniture workshop that designs and manufactures fine furniture, built-in cabinetry, specialty floor and wall coverings, and home accessories. We specialize in natural materials such as tropical woods, fiber and grass weaves, rattan, and bamboo. We also work with iron, veneers, brass, leather, bone, and plastic weaves. We believe that the beauty of our pieces comes from both the design and the quality of the craftsmanship. Our methods are the result of years of experience as well as an intimate knowledge of the tradition of furniture making. It is the combination of our design and craft that results in exceptional furniture.
Though our furniture has traditionally leaned towards more classic pieces, in recent years we have started to create more modern, ambiguous forms, while crafting them using our traditional techniques. We like to think of our work as intimate architecture for the body and for our lives that inhabit them – where a medicine cabinet can hold pills, or a series of mundane things, or a collection of items that connect to our dreams. Furniture, as objects that are scattered about, are also the objects around which we gather with family to celebrate, they are the objects in which we lay a sleeping child, and in which we suspend our bodies. As objects, they suggest their function, but we hope they also evoke a sense delight, an appreciation of texture, and a formal fascination.
