MARIAGROUP is a design studio led by the brother and sister duo Georges and Michèle Maria. The practice undertakes works of all scales, spanning from small interior projects to large urban plans, from conception to delivery. MARIAGROUP begins all projects from a standpoint that is decidedly architectural, responding to each brief with space in mind. Committed belief understanding that architecture is shaped by a collaborative confluence of design ideals, tectonic (or material) knowledge, and (const ruct ion) craftsmanship, they seek to create for each project a unique world of real physical experiences and journeys.

Their work stems from a strong desire: to translate need into built form and create a sense of excitement; to craft a story of everyday life into a poetic and unexpected gesture.
