Co/Creators

Founded by designers Lorena and Antonio, siblings with complementary talents and backgrounds, who’s interdisciplinary practice is one that strives to translate missions into meaningful brands, products and services that share a set of values for the common good.

Motivated by their creative complicity, after 18 years of combined experience in design, they decided to create their own studio together based in Montreal in 2017 to build on the intersection of creativity and the positive impact of design to society.

Our approach is guided by a multicultural vision, traditional craftsmanship, digital manufacturing, critical thinking, research and sustainable development to deliver both responsible and innovative proposals.
