Ries

RIES creates collectible furniture where industrial precision, refined craftsmanship and contemporary design converge through material experimentation.

Founded in Buenos Aires by Marcos Altgelt and Tasio Picollo, RIES develops collectible furniture rooted in architectural thinking, functional simplicity and careful material research. Every collection explores the relationship between geometry, proportion and everyday use through a contemporary design language.

The studio combines traditional craftsmanship with advanced manufacturing processes, allowing wood, metal, stone and innovative materials to coexist in highly refined compositions. Every detail is carefully considered to achieve visual balance, durability and timeless elegance.

Collections including seating, tables, storage and lighting express a restrained aesthetic where clean lines, sculptural volumes and honest materials define each object. Rather than following trends, RIES focuses on enduring forms that integrate naturally into residential, hospitality and commercial interiors.

Each piece reflects the studio's commitment to functionality, precision and emotional resonance, creating collectible furniture that balances architectural presence with everyday usability and lasting material authenticity.

"Design should simplify everyday life while creating lasting emotional connections through material, proportion and timeless forms."

More than a collectible design studio, RIES develops contemporary furniture and interior solutions shaped by craftsmanship, industrial expertise and architectural sensitivity. Every project explores how materials, manufacturing techniques and geometry can create functional objects with enduring cultural and aesthetic value.

Each collection reflects a rigorous design process where wood, metal, stone and innovative finishes are carefully selected to express honesty, longevity and refinement. Produced in limited series and bespoke commissions, RIES creates collectible furniture conceived to remain relevant across generations while celebrating contemporary Argentinian design.
