MAISON & OBJET TALKS PROGRAM
Paris | FR
2026
Ayres is deeply grateful to Basalto Collective and its founder, Paulina Resendiz, who proudly took the studio's work beyond borders by showcasing the Amazonas Chair at Maison & Objet. The piece was featured in the panel How contemporary Mexican design is delving into the past to craft a better future, a dialogue dedicated to how Mexico's rich heritage of techniques and materials paves the way for the evolution of contemporary design.
Given its grand scale and elevated seat, the Amazonas Chair represents a symbolic throne for warrior women. Through it, Ayres explores an aesthetic that fuses the ancient with the modern, grounded in a profound appreciation for the material itself and for the Mexican master artisans who bring it to life.
