MÚTUO
The Essence of MÚTUO
A statement of trust between designer and maker
MÚTUO is the result of an exclusive collaboration with interior designer Rita Valadão, combining architectural precision with hand-crafted warmth. The name – meaning “mutual” – reflects a piece born from shared authorship, where Valadão’s modern vision meets Mamoa’s expertise in Portuguese craft.
design concept and inspiration
A familiar yet distinctly personal presence for any curated space
MÚTUO works through contrast. A high-gloss walnut base grounds the piece and lifts a generous seat, solid yet inviting. The backrest wraps around in a continuous curve of pleated velvet, a tactile inner shell; the vertical pleats catch the light and add depth to the surface.
On either side, clean walnut panels extend upwards to frame the upholstered interior. The interplay between polished timber and velvet gives the piece a quiet theatricality, a small stage for the body. Rooted in traditional joinery and precise woodworking, MÚTUO holds its form from every angle.
