Meet the designer
Hi! I’m Angela Ribas, founder of Manifold Studio, where form meets function in everyday essentials. Born and raised in Brazil, now calling California home, I was trained as an architect and have always been drawn to clean lines, unique angles, and thoughtful details. From crafting spaces to creating products, I’m inspired by the art of simplicity and minimalism. My design philosophy is also influenced by Japanese folding techniques, which play a key role in my bag designs.
