IAMMI
IAMMI is an artistic duo formed in 2020 by Portuguese designer Nicolau dos Santos and French-Italian art director Stephanie Blanchard. Together, they explore the dynamic interplay between classic and contemporary design, challenging conventions through bold and unconventional combinations. Their work seeks to challenge traditional notions and arouse emotion, often employing playful subversion and provocation.
Driven by intuition and deep listening, Nicolau and Stephanie engage in extensive research and experimentation. They aim to create projects that resonate on an emotional level, inspiring action and reflection. With a keen focus on context, process, and semantics, they ensure that each piece embodies a rich and expressive narrative.
IAMMI embraces a diverse array of projects, both self-initiated and commissioned, continually pushing the boundaries of design with surprising techniques and materials. Their belief in the timelessness of ideas motivates them to capture the essence of concepts rather than chase fleeting trends.
IAMMI combine innovation, unconventional thought, and emotional depth to produce designs that are not only thought-provoking but also profoundly impactful.
