After cutting his teeth at various prominent Toronto firms in his early career, industrial designer Jake Oliveira founded his eponymous practice in 2021. The studio’s ethos sees deeply personal concepts smashed together with classical analogue technique to result in forms that are novel, instantly recognizable, and yet pleasantly functional.The studio now operates out of Toronto’s Junction neighbourhood.

Since it’s founding, Jake Oliveira Studio has collaborated with international brands — such as Boyd Lighting, A. Rudin, and Powell & Bonnell on a broad offering of designs including furniture, lighting, and more. The studio’s creations have exhibited in shows internationally, and adorn iconic showrooms including Dennis Miller (New York) and R Hughes (Atlanta); as well as showrooms in France, Germany, the UAE, and the UK.

The studio’s work has been profiled by numerous publications on the cutting edge of design; including Interior Design Magazine, Azure Magazine, ELLE Decor, Designboom, Luxe, NUVO Magazine, Interiors Magazine, Canadian Interiors, DesignTO, and more.
