A quiet approach to furniture, rooted in wood and ritual
CHICHOIMAO is a Hong Kong-based woodworking studio creating small furniture and objects from solid wood, including oak, ash and black walnut. Founded in 2019, the studio combines traditional joinery techniques with a quietly playful sensibility, producing handcrafted pieces designed to bring a sense of calm and ease to everyday life.
Working in small batches, CHICHOIMAO focuses on natural materials and meticulous craftsmanship, with a collection that ranges from low seating and storage to objects for both people and their pets. At Material Matters Copenhagen 2026, the studio will present a selection of its best-selling designs alongside new work, including wooden cabinets for instant film and finely detailed pieces inspired by Japanese and domestic traditions.
