Maia Ming Fong was born in Hawaii, grew up in Italy and is currently based in Barcelona.
She has been a designer and maker her whole life and has a particular passion
for ceramics. Maia studied Product Design at Stanford University and has helped
many companies create amazing products.

When herchildren were young, Maia took a pottery class with them and re-entered the
world of ceramics. She began forming small pieces on the wheel and then
adapting them by hand. This led to group and solo exhibits and greater demand
for her work. Eventually, Maia began using slip cast molds to reproduce her
ceramic designs in small series.
