Making
Made to live with.
The people, processes and craftsmanship behind the objects within the residences.
The ecosystem
Many makers. One standard.
The Mall Residence works with designers, workshops, artists and craftspeople over time — never a single supplier. Each piece carries its maker with it.
That is why every product has an identity that belongs to the TMR ecosystem, so makers can change without the platform changing.
01
Material samples
Every piece begins with a table of timber, stone, metal and textile samples, tested against light and wear.
02
Prototype development
Full-scale prototypes are built, sat in and lived with before a single production piece is cut.
03
Woodwork & joinery
Solid timber is cut, joined and shaped by hand-and-machine workshops in Lagos and Abuja.
04
Metalwork
Spun, folded and welded metal — lamps, frames and bases — finished by hand.
05
Upholstery & finishing
Linen, bouclé and wool are cut and stitched, then every surface is oiled, waxed or glazed.
06
Installation
Pieces arrive in the residence, are placed with the interior team and photographed in use.
