AtMA
AtMa is a Tokyo-based creative studio founded in 2013 by interior designer Makoto Suzuki and artist Ayumi Koyama. The studio’s practice is organized around three interwoven axes: client work encompassing interiors, products, installations, and creative direction; self-initiated projects engaging with social and environmental issues; and the operation of COM, a dedicated space for presenting their own works and fostering dialogues with artists. Each axis feeds into the others, enabling deeper exploration and multiple perspectives. The studio is currently engaged in material experiments directly connected to its self-initiated research.
J39.5 is AtMa’s most recognized body of work to date, and one of the most compelling propositions to have emerged from contemporary design’s engagement with material stewardship. The series has been covered extensively in leading international publications including DAMN, FRAME, and Ark Journal. AtMa’s most recent series, SUR+PLUS, presented at ALCOVA Milan in April 2026, extends the same principles to the material offcuts of the studio’s own interior design practice, combining stone slabs, wood tiles, carpet remnants, and other fragments through a shared metal joinery system into a new family of seating objects.
The studio has exhibited internationally since 2017, with a sustained presence at Milan Design Week across multiple editions, at Collectible New York, and at DESIGNART Tokyo. Its awards history spans multiple Dezeen Award nominations and wins, Architecture Hunter Awards, Paris Design Awards, and the Design Anthology Award for Product – Furniture.
