Latvia
onlyonly studio, founded in 2020 by Harijs Vucens and Anna Līva Traumane, charts new territories between architecture and collectible design from their base in Riga, Latvia. The practice developed 'transmorphic design' - where discoveries from fashion, photography, and contemporary art transform into spatial experiences.
Drawing from the Baltic region's rapid cultural evolution and long winter contemplations, they turn unexpected references into fresh innovations. Harijs's product design background merges with Anna's architectural expertise, allowing their practice to move fluently between scales.
