Galeríafantasma by Laura Gomez - Medellín, Colombia


Laura Gómez is an Industrial designer born and raised in Medellín, Colombia. She has worked in New York where she acquired experience in art, design, and project managing. Her inspiration comes from her constant trips around North and South America, visiting art museums and fascinating places. This is how she became the founder of Galeríafantasma


Based in
Medellín, Colombia and open to the public, Galeríafantasma is a design studio where tech-surrealism inspired objects are created. Merging art and functionality, these products recreate a Sci Fi environment in the comfort of your home. CÓSMICA is the inaugural collection. It consists of furniture inspired by the Space Age where planets, antennas, and satellites are the primary objects.


Laura uses Rhino though her design and fabrication process. She stated that "Rhino became [her] main tool in the design process, with the software [she] can recreate the spaces and environments [she] wants to materialize and have a very approximate idea on how harmonic the whole installation is going to be when brought to life." She uses Rhino for the engineering and production process too.
