MLR is an ever-evolving, high quality Melbourne based brand, established by young creative Marie-Lauren Romano. In essence the brand is an extension of Marie’s personal spontaneous approach to creativity, design and surface creation.
Drawing inspiration from; hidden details, curved forms, the simplicity of textural details, and the material at hand. MLR pieces are honest, and experimental resulting in slightly unpredictable outcomes with a rough organic aesthetic, generally including Marie’s signature, stippling details.
Rarely planning her designs Marie-Lauren prefers to experiment throughout the process, making elements imperfect yet appealing. MLR can be thought of as miniature sculptures displaying expressive, eclectic, dream-like qualities; for example Marie-Lauren’s fingerprints appear embalmed in the physical mold of pieces.
Each MLR customer is receiving sculptural modern pieces, which incorporate a little Melbourne culture with dream like motif, surface design and tactile elements.
