View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Gerardo Ríos AltamiranoAbout Gerardo Ríos Altamirano : Gerardo Ríos's artistry and craftsmanship is a symbiotic reflection of what he believes in and often finds inspiration on “the daring romance and adventures that we find in people, history and our natural environment”. Ríos’ artistic spirit is inherited from a lineage of artists dating back to his great-great grandfather, the world-renowned painter José MarÍa Velasco.
Each piece of furniture, whether it is a chair, a divan, or a chaise lounge, should create a sense of harmony and provoke a sensual response with the person who experiences it.
For Gerardo Ríos, It is the need to communicate and the possibility of astonishment that defines the word “Design”.
