Nada Duele is a sustainable design studio based in Guatemala, dedicated to creating design objects and accessories that blend traditional craftsmanship with a contemporary vision. Founded in 2019, the studio collaborates with master artisans across Guatemala to craft unique, responsible, and timeless pieces, ensuring the preservation of traditional crafts while supporting job creation. It is led by multidisciplinary artists Giselle MacDonald and Mariano Orellana.

Our commitment to ethical production is encapsulated in our name, Nada Duele (Spanish for “nothing hurts”).

At Nada Duele, each product tells a story of Guatemala’s natural and cultural heritage. From our recycled blown glassware to wool rugs and cushions, and stone and wrought iron artifacts, we strive to honor the beauty, traditions, and culture of our land. These elements are seamlessly integrated with contemporary design, celebrating modern aesthetics while preserving the essence of craftsmanship. Our goal is to promote a lifestyle that values and protects our environment, connecting the past with the present through unique and timeless pieces.
