Joyful Objects, Yes! is a Mexico City-based design studio founded in 2021 by Joy Valdez, an industrial designer originally from Mérida, Yucatán. With a background in Industrial Design, Valdez established Joyful Objects, Yes! with the mission to inject a sense of fun and vibrancy into everyday living spaces. Rejecting the notion that design must always be serious and elegant, Joy embraces a playful approach that celebrates uniqueness and individuality.
Joy’s designs are not merely superficial expressions of joy; rather, they are deeply rooted in Mexican culture and traditions. Through her use of materials like chuspata, a traditional Mexican fiber, Joy pays homage to her country’s craftsmanship and heritage. The sinuous and wavy silhouettes of her pieces, inspired by kinetic forms and rippling waves, create a sense of happiness in any interior space.
With Joyful Objects, Yes!, Joy seeks to showcase Mexico’s vibrant culture and artistic legacy while also capturing the spirit of modern interior design. Through her innovative designs and playful aesthetic, Joy invites us to embrace joy and celebrate life’s moments, one unique piece at a time
