Art + Design + Fabrication

STUDIO ARMA is a multidisciplinary design studio working in art, furniture and lighting. Based in Greenport, New York, it’s the collaborative efforts between life partners, Nadira Vlaun and Kristian Iglesias. During the process of conceptualizing, observing and fabricating, an energy is created into form. To harbor this union is at the center of our work.

The word ARMA is a root word that means “that what fits together.” Like our process that begins with the most basic and significant characteristics—a sketch, a scrap piece of material, an object found in nature, the word mirrors this process of starting with the understated and raw and turning that into a one-of-a-kind creation.
