MAGOLAB

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, to create funny, useful and modern household items. Storytelling ceramic objects with soul, that make your life easier and give you joy.

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 trully 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 choosed 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 metarialize something on my own, from the concept to the packaging, trully fulfills me.

All MAGO LAB products are made and decorated by hand and each comes with its own packaging. Being hand-made, each one is slightly different and can vary slightly from the photos.

ATTENTION: There are some products where 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 twice!

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.

I produce them in the singular city of Grenoble, France, entirely handmade with crafts methods, trying to optimise 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.

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!
