DOMESTIC FORMS
By Omolade Ogundimu, MOSTUDEO
Domestic Forms is a design exploration rooted in memory, material, and structure. The project began from a personal reflection on the familiar elements of a Yoruba household: the pillars, tiled floors, and architectural gestures that shaped my sense of home. Growing up, I remember our family house in Ilaro, Ogun State, and even our current one, both defined by their strong pillars; a recurring motif that became the highlight of this collection.
In searching for something new, I found myself drawn back to what was already cherished. That sense of rediscovery shaped how I approached form, not as an invention, but as a continuation of the architectural language I had always known.
Another important consideration during the design incubation program was practicality, especially cost. My earlier collections were larger in scale, but I wanted to retain the mosaic tile craftsmanship that defines MOSTUDEO’s work. To balance this, I adopted a subtractive design approach carving away from a solid block, creating negative space that both reduced size and tile coverage without losing identity.
This process pushed me to think more intentionally to design not just as an artist, but as a problem-solver.
Domestic Forms is on view from October 23rd to 26th at NAHOUS, Federal Palace, and I can’t wait to share this body of work with you all.
