ITZ

Ania Wolowska is a Polish-born product designer. For the past 12 years, she has been residing in Bacalar, Quintana Roo, where she discovered the world of tropical woods, the language of carpentry, and the processes that transform wood into objects. From there, ITZ was born; a woodworking workshop and design studio that uses endemic tropical woods from southern Mexico to create contemporary furniture.

Ania closely collaborates with local carpenters and artisans, blending design with regional talent. She finds inspiration in nature, Japanese woodworking techniques, ancestral cultures, rituals, and origin stories.

Furthermore, she believes in quality over quantity: having fewer pieces that endure a lifetime. For this reason, her intention is to create timeless objects with simple and honest forms that highlight the natural beauty of the materials she works with.
