Joan Lao’s Original collection

Furniture to get excited about.

The brand Original Joan Lao, manufactured by the company ST Muebles, based in Vinaroz, in the province of Castellón, in eastern Spain, is a new furniture range comprising tables, chairs, upholstered furniture, bookcases, containers and lamps, all suitable for domestic spaces and public spaces and projects. The pieces aim to be exciting, provoke agreeable sensations and inspire a lifestyle that places great value on the spiritual.

Created by Barcelona-based designer Joan Lao, these stand out for their pleasingly sober, minimalist lines and architectural influences. They present a perfect balance of good looks and functionality, and occupy a middle ground between looking mass-produced and hand-crafted, thanks to their attention to detail and luxurious finishes. Original Joan Lao’s goal is to be enduring, to transcend mere fashion – and offer exemplary pieces of classic, contemporary design. To this end, each is conceived and created according to the strictest criteria founded on sustainability and a respect for the environment.

Lao is a hugely conceptual designer, and it’s precisely because he always takes concepts as the starting point for his products that these manage to be both cutting-edge and timeless. His main source of inspiration is nature, which he strongly connects with, while advocating sustainable practices in all stages of his designs’ production. His work is well-known internationally, and some of it is sold and displayed at globally renowned showrooms and museums.
