MAGOLAB

Hello!
My name is Iván MaGo, the head and hands behind MAGO LAB. After more than 15 years of profession as product designer, the last 10 specialized in eco-design; in 2013 I finally dared to realize two of my dreams: working with ceramics and creating my own brand, MAGO LAB.

With MAGO LAB I combine design, art and crafts in the creation of porcelain products for modern homes. Handmade items, useful, touching and long-lasting, made in France. Funny and responsible everyday objects that make our lives easier and joyful.

My main goal is, after all, to serve you, to help you in your daily life, while making you blissful, with funny and delightful objects. That’s right. What truly fulfills me is to be helpful, to create useful, quirky and funny things that ease your life and put a smile on your face.

How do I do this? By designing with people in mind. In every product I create, I try to balance functionality and aesthetics to put them at the same level, thus making objects that are both useful and beautiful, and have a story to tell.

I choose ceramics because it’s a warm, durable, earth-friendly fascinating material, with an incredible range of possibilities that allows me to create multiple things. Also because working with my hands, being able to create and materialize something on my own, from the concept to the packaging, truly fulfills me.

Every product from MAGO LAB is designed, developed, produced, packed and shipped by myself, Iván MaGo. A lot of work I do with the pleasure of being able to share my inner world with you.

All products are made and hand-decorated at my workshop in Grenoble France, and each comes with its own packaging. Being hand-made, each one is slightly different and can vary from the photos.

I produce them in the singular city of Grenoble, France, entirely handmade with crafts methods, trying to optimize the use of material and energy. A care for well-done things, the respect for our unique planet and user-centered design, are my main values.

ATTENTION: There are some products in which I repeat the decoration, mainly if they are bestsellers, but I like to change the decorations once in a while, so if you see something you like, don’t think it twice! ;)

If you like my brand, the best support you can give me is buying my products! It’s the main way I can continue to make things for you. And please, I’ll be happy to have your feedback, it’s very important for me to learn from you, in order to improve my products.

See you around!
