Discovery

Monograms Art House is a brand based in Athens. It creates bespoke interior design pieces that reflect the brand’s philosophy of style, thoughtfulness, and individuality.

Their focus is to offer unique, contemporary objects which retain a classic elegance.

Their range of home accessories embraces a fantastical selection of boxes, presentation trays, serving platters, vide poches, paperweights, candles and table and bar appendages. Their medium varies from metal to glass to lacquered or varnished wood. The surfaces are lustrous and glossy, and the colours vibrant or darkly sophisticated. The monogrammed letters are artfully emblazoned or etched onto them.

Monogram Art House’s was born from the desire of its founder, and chief designer, to create something new, a series of original design objects offering an alternative to commercial ready-made items.

For A Magic Cabinet the company created custom made candles with our logo etched by laser on metallic glass.

Monograms Art House places emphasis on elegant packaging, making sure that each of their products is presented in an interesting way. Their signature crafted boxes exude luxury.

Memory

The creative spirit behind Monograms Art House is a dear friend who had shared her design vision with me several years ago. She worked on her dream and has now developed it into a flourishing company. I always wanted to showcase her work but promised to safeguard her anonymity.

Monogram Art House’s was born from the desire of its founder, and chief designer, to create something new, a series of original design objects offering an alternative to commercial ready-made items.

At the beginning she and her team experimented with various items and materials from which to fashion them. They retained most of these initial concepts while others were either discarded or evolved into new ideas. At the same time, they tried different production techniques and technologies so as to create products reflecting the luxury profile they were aiming for.

This is our first custom made product which sports our magical logo. It makes me proud and happy that it was created by a friend, who may be anonymous but who is much beloved.

Narration

The brand’s team at times collaborates with dedicated manufacturers and suppliers for the special materials they have need of.

After the initial design process, part of the development takes place in the in-house workshop. In the case of a more elaborate design, or the need of a rare material, the brand collaborates with other workshops who have specialized machinery and tools.

The team of Monograms Art House always pursue novel ideas and a view to create innovative items. The first stage of production is always the most exciting, as a new idea begins to take its form. After conceiving an idea for an object, they try to find ways to engineer it, and to transform the concept into a tangible high-quality product.
