Mauricio Lara holds an Industrial Design degree from the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara (1988-1992) and is considered to be one of the most influential designers in Mexico with almost 30 years of work experience. Founder of EOS Mexico (1998), he collaborates with his brother Sebastián Lara at Lara Hnos (2004 to date), one of the most important design studios in the country of which he is cofounder. In 2009, the publishing house Arquine released the book 'EOS Mexico, the work of Mauricio and Sebastián Lara' as a career recognition. Lara's artworks have been displayed at several exhibitions in Mexico, in the United States and in Europe, winning multiple national and international design awards. After appearing in the exhibition ‘Destination: Mexico (2012)’ at MoMA Design Store (New York), his masterpiece ‘Erizo (2000)’, a stylish pencil holder, was purchased by the same museum as exclusive piece of its store. Subsequently, in 2017, his ‘CHAC-SEAT’ (2004) was acquired by the Denver Art Museum as part of its international design collection. In March 2022, the publishing house Toronja Ediciones released his first book ‘Mauricio Lara: A black ink story’.
