AtMa inc. is a creative unit established in 2013 by Makoto Suzuki, an interior designer, and Ayumi Koyama, an artist.
In addition to designing spaces such as apparel shops, restaurants and window displays, directing creative aspects of apartments and hotels, designing product, installations for clients, the studio is also involved in self-initiated projects on social issues and running their own space, “COM” where they exhibit their own works and collaborations with artists and share ideas with visitors. These three axes—client work, self-initiated projects, and running their own space—each feed into the other and enable them to investigate deeper exploration and multiple perspectives.
In recent years, AtMa inc. has been actively exhibiting self-initiated work as well as installations for clients in Milan Design Week, and also, presenting projects delivered from their own space, “COM”, in Japan.
