Ruina Futura Vol. II
Ruina Futura Vol.II is the result of a journey through the languages of architecture and objects, celebrating them and bringing them to the present in contemporary Mexican design pieces.
In contrast to the overstimulation, excess and high speed of the digital age, our collection is committed to the power of design to transform everyday experience by creating moments of pause and counterbalance through objects that resonate with fundamental forms and gestures of human civilizations. Through space and object we invite you to inhabit at a slow pace, exalting the ritual of daily life. Ruina Futura Vol. II grows on the narrative begun in 2022, integrating a curation of objects that are both primary and multi-temporal, seeking to blur the lines of time and territory. We aspire to forge a new continuum of universal values: connection, joy and calmness.
Guided by three main axes, our narrative dives into the history of humanity to rediscover what has endured throughout time: the recurrence of basic forms in architecture, the permanence of primordial objects with the human being through of history, and the inherent beauty of the materialities molded by the passage of time and the natural elements on the object. These axes indicate meeting points between past and present civilizations. Hopefully, we believe that in distance and time, these universal connections will continue to unite us and prevail among us.
