Art came very naturally to Tamara, a lifelong painter herself.
Today, that unique upbringing, combined with her time living and studying in Tokyo, shape all of Tamara’s work. Her interiors organically meld the structure and clean lines of Japanese design with the warmth and layers upon layers of natural materials that populate Mexican aesthetics.
