Subject that organises the work

There is a recurring idea that the office needs to soften its presence, almost step back, so that work can happen. Neutral surfaces, objects reduced to a minimum, everything designed not to distract.

Where the
body
meets
the space

Some objects establish a direct relationship with the body and, from it, begin to organise the space around them.

The armchair is one of them.
Places for lingering are one such element.

Before any formal interpretation, it is defined by fit, support and permanence.

The intention behind a
project's identity

Before choosing the material, colour, or design, there is an invisible repertoire that guides the project: memories, habits, everyday rhythms, necessary silences, and tolerable excesses. Every resident carries their own way of occupying the world, and it is from here that architecture is founded.

the time
of decisions

Every beginning of the year carries choices. Some are evident, others almost imperceptible, but it is from these that the work is sustained.

In the erriá, decisions accumulate in the design that precedes the work, in testing a fit, in the choice of a material, in the way an object touches the body or how a space responds to use. These are decisions that do not seek immediate effect, but slowly build meaning, in the time of doing.

The time
of things

There is a type of architecture that imposes itself immediately. Another, rarer type, prefers to be perceived gradually. It does not announce itself; it is built over time.

It is this process that guided the erriá in the last year: we began to organise our recent production into a continuous narrative, not as a sequence of isolated projects. What was underway was not merely the presentation of projects, pieces, or completed spaces, but rather the translation into image and text of the time of things: that of listening, of matter, of the body, of space. A journey that understands the project as something that is formed by layers and not by leaps.

the house
inhabited

The Sagitarius Residence reveals an architecture that strengthens in the meeting of routine and presence. The project materialises in the interface between the precision of gestures - the wide circulation spaces, the light aligned with the surfaces, the joinery that structures the space naturally - and the routine of those who live there.

What remains when the form transforms

No error, furniture design does not arise from a need to fill space, but to understand it. To perceive weight, touch, temperature, and translate them into form. Each piece is born as an extension of architecture, as part of the same thought that traverses scales: from the body to the home, from the structure to the detail.

Body in motion,
work in progress

In this way, planning the space is not limited to proportions and timelines: it is about finding the space in transition - observing how matter organizes itself, how light passes through the void, and how detail announces the life to come. Just like following a construction, allowing oneself to experience new spatialities, whether in a design fair, in museums, or in exhibitions, becomes a way of thinking about architecture beyond the project.

corpo
e casa

Perhaps the most intimate trait of a project lies in what it holds without announcing: the time of pause, the small gesture, the ebb and flow between rooms, the exact distance between touch and support. When we think of space as an extension of the body, we seek not only ergonomics as a response but presence as a premise.

a project begins
within intersections

The project is born at the moment when gazes and words cross.
It is in this meeting - the first stage of the design process - that ways of living, pauses and movements (of everyday life) are translated into the built space.
The attentive listening of the erriá reveals everyday gestures that, over time, transform into rituals of living: the coffee that happens in the same armchair,
the light that crosses the window, the table that becomes a point of conversation and work.

Details that stitch stories

We understand that sensitive choices are not resolved at the end of a project. They exist from the very beginning. Each choice carries the potential of a narrative. The doorknob that feels heavy in the hand. The wood cut that subtly repeats in other furniture. The light fixture that integrates with the panel. It is these decisions (sometimes minimal) that make the space belong to those who inhabit it.

MEET THE NEW ERRIÁ

The erriá originates from an intense curiosity about the universe of architecture and design. It emerges with a contemporary and innovative approach. Always in search of materials and technologies, ideas are shaped into tangible structures. The work occurs from large to small scale, where the experience reflects from architecture to furniture.

by our manifesto

The erriá is born from attentive listening. From those who inhabit the space, the rhythm of inhabiting, the silences, the time, and that which is manifested in the subtleties of everyday life. Our work traverses different scales, yet stems from the same intention: how to make the space a place of permanence?

Subject that organises the work

Where
body meets
space

Some objects establish a direct relationship with the body — and from there, begin to shape the surrounding space around them.

The armchair is one of them.
A places of permanence is one of those elements.

Before form is perceived, it is defined by comfort, support, and the instinct to stay.

The intention-based
identity of a space

Before any choice of material, colour, or design, there is an invisible repertoire that guides the project: memories, habits, everyday rhythms, necessary silences, and tolerable excesses. Each person carries their own way of occupying the world — and it is from here that architecture begins.

the time
for decisions

Each cycle begins with decisions.

Some are clear, others almost imperceptible — yet it is from them that the work is sustained.

At erriá, decisions accumulate in the thinking that precedes the work, in testing a fit, in materiality, in the way an object meets the body or a space responds to use.

These are decisions that do not seek immediate effect, but slowly build meaning over time.

The pace
of design

There is a kind of architecture that asserts itself immediately. Another, rarer kind, reveals itself slowly. It does not announce itself; it takes shape over time.

This is the process that has guided erriá over the past year: organising our recent work into a continuous narrative, rather than a sequence of isolated projects. What emerged was not simply the presentation of projects, pieces, or completed spaces, but the translation into image and text of the pace of things — of listening, of matter, of body, of space. A process that understands the project as something formed in layers, not in leaps.

the inhabited house

The Sagittarius Residence reveals an architecture that gains strength in the meeting of routine and presence. The project takes shape at the intersection of precise gestures — generous circulation, light aligned with surfaces, the carpentry that structures the space naturally — and the daily life of those who inhabit it.

What remains
as form transforms

Not by chance, furniture design does not arise from the need to fill space, but to understand it. To perceive weight, touch, temperature — and translate them into form. Each piece emerges as an extension of architecture, part of the same line of thought that moves across scales: from the body to the home, from structure to the detail.

Body in motion,
work in progress

At erriá, planning a space is not limited to proportions and layout. It begins by understanding space in transition — observing how matter organises itself, how it moves through the void, and how detail antecipates what is yet to come.

It is not only about following a construction process, but about allowing oneself to experience spatiality — whether at a design fair, in museums, or in exhibitions — as a way of thinking about architecture beyond the project.

body
and home

Perhaps the most intimate aspect of a project lies in what it holds without announcing: the time of pause, the subtle gesture, the ebb and flow between rooms, the precise distance between touch and support. When we understand space as an extension of the body, we seek not only ergonomics as a response, but presence as a premise.

design lives
within intersections

A project is born at the moment when gazes and words meet.
It is in this encounter — the first stage of the design process — that ways of living, pauses, and movements of everyday life are translated into the built space.
Through attentive listening, erriá reveals everyday gestures that, over time, become ways of living: coffee taken in the same armchair,
light moving across the window, the table that becomes a place for conversation and work.

Details
that stitch stories

We understand that sensitive choices are not resolved at the end of a project. They are present from the very beginning. Each one carries the weight of a narrative. The door handle that feels substanital in the hand. The grain of the wood that subtly echoes across different pieces. The light fixture that integrates into the panel. It is these decisions — often minimal — that allow a space to truly belong to those who inhabit it.

Discover the new erriá

Erria has always moved between scales — from architecture to object. But it became clear that it was time to align what we expressed outwardly with the precision of what was already happening within. There was a lack of clarity in how we communicated. Our way of representing ourselves no longer reflected our journey. The areas of action had become diluted. The content, fragmented.

get inspired
by our manifesto

Erriá stems from an enduring curiosity about the world of architecture and design. It takes shape through a contemporary, forward-thinking approach. In a constant search for materials and technologies, ideas are translated into tangible structures. The work unfolds across scales — from architecture to furniture — where experience remains continuous.
