La Muerte Tiene Permiso

La Muerte Tiene Permiso is a project created by Omar Ortiz Franco with the desire to share a contemporary Mexican design aesthetic in the international context. The brand celebrates vernacular materials and Mexico's historical traditions, blending them with a contemporary finish that honors the country’s artisanal legacy.

The designs of La Muerte Tiene Permiso are inspired by popular stories, Mexican cinema and photography, and architecture, exploring what it means to inhabit a home. Through collaborations with traditional workshops across Mexico, the brand pays tribute to ancestral methods and natural materials, creating objects that, at the end of their useful life, can contribute to the natural cycle of the earth.

In a world marked by environmental crisis, La Muerte Tiene Permiso aligns with a tradition that seeks to transform the way we consume and value everyday objects, proposing a conscious and reflective vision of design and its impact.
