Founders

Ucha was founded by Lucía, who leads the studio’s creative direction.

Trained in fashion design at the University of Buenos Aires, her practice moves between jewelry, object, and image—exploring the relationship between materials, memory, and imagination.

In 2024, Agustín joined the studio. An industrial engineer trained at the Buenos Aires Institute of Technology, he oversees the project’s strategic development and structure.

Together, they shape Ucha as an independent studio that brings together material research, formal experimentation, and a contemporary approach to objects.

Ucha

Ucha is a studio exploring form through stones, fragments, and intuitive compositions.

Founded in 2013 in Buenos Aires, the project began with jewelry and gradually expanded into a broader investigation of objects for the body.

Design begins directly with the material. The process resembles drawing, but instead of lines on paper, it unfolds through materials in space.

Materials

Most Ucha pieces are created using vintage or deadstock materials.

Stones, components, and fragments that already exist in the world are brought back into circulation and transformed into new objects.

Working in this way connects the studio to a continuous cycle of reuse, transformation, and imagination.

Imaginary

Forms emerge in moments where attention shifts between observation, memory, and dream.

The garden appears as a mental landscape—a space where fragments coexist, forms grow freely, and unexpected connections arise.

Ucha objects retain these fleeting impressions, like traces that remain after waking.
