MAVIS began as an attempt to have a creative outlet that was tactile, physical and autonomous by a Copenhagen based filmmaker who is originally from Aotearoa / New Zealand.
It started in a film office basement and is slowly evolving with time.
The long-term goal is simply to have a sustainable form-making practice, with the dream of making larger objects in varying materials. A practice that is inspired by the world around, and by the maker’s links to the South Pacific. Hopefully things will get weirder and more playful as time passes. Right now though, the focus is on regular practice.
This website will host some simple recurring furniture pieces in the Core Collection, which can be ordered, and then some One-of-a-Kind pieces which come and go. In the Cabinetry section we have some cabinets and shelving solutions. We also can make smaller kitchens. We currently do not do installations.
Prices are intended to be affordable, whilst still in alignment with the time things take to make, and with the goal of supporting further artistic development.
Requests for custom works, and occasional joinery projects are welcome. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
All the best,
Mavis.
