About Maley · Founder
Between Zurich and Tokyo, my whole life.
My father is Swiss, my mother Japanese. I grew up between both worlds - Zurich as home, Japan as a second home: its design language, its craftsmanship, and the particular way it gives space to objects and to people.
What I really wanted to curate didn't exist in Switzerland yet.
MALEY is the result. Almost everything in the store comes directly from Japanese craft brands - through relationships I built personally. In Tokyo. In Japanese.

Curation philosophy
"Every object here was chosen because it shows something - about the craft, the material, the person behind it. The simpler it looks, the more there is inside it."
