Ventures
Two ventures alongside the studio, both rooted in the same honest materials and craft.
An interior design is, by nature, for one client. Société by Giorgio is how I opened the door for everyone else.
Launched in 2024, Société is a meticulously curated homeware and furniture collection, table linens, dinnerware, glassware, fragrance, lighting, objects and furniture, that translates my design motif into pieces anyone can bring home.
The curation blends local South African artistry with international charm, with a deliberate focus on fostering community: Société is built as a society, not a shop, hence the name Société by Giorgio.

Ceramics & Woodware
Clay by MG
Clay by MG is where I first fell in love with the concept of things being made by hand. It is the ceramics and woodware company I co-founded with my sister, Mary, in late 2018, when I was eighteen, to fill a gap we could both see: customisable, durable, handmade ceramic ware for the home and for the hospitality industry. Every piece is designed by the two of us and made to order by hand: hefty stoneware espresso cups, plates with organic curves, hand-turned cake stands in kiaat and walnut, each with bespoke glazes and sizes. Our pieces are all soft, organic curves and the small imperfections that come with handmade work, simple, honest things. It is the same thinking as my interiors, just small enough to hold.
