Amodo, About Us

A-MODO comes from FA A MOD: a typical expression from Emilia Romagna, the Italian region where Marianna is from.
It literally means “behave well”. It’s used to tell a person not to get into trouble.
It is also used to describe something that was done or made properly.

Properly made, carefully crafted, well cared for: this is what you can expect from our selection of objects.
Do we try them before we present them to you? Yes, we do!

Amodo is a small concept store, founded in 2015 in the heart of Berlin Mitte by Marianna and Matteo.
The idea was to create an intimate space where to offer a selection of different objects, from books to fabrics, from ceramics to toys, all made with passion, mostly by small manufacturers and independent designers, often handcrafted.

We founded AMODO in 2015, and after ten years we’ve learned a lot and seen a lot of changes around the shop and inside it. There are brands we will never not have: YKRA and Kumi Mood, Corteccia and Luè, Octaevo and Studio Roof, Solari di Udine and Artemide. Sometimes an entire collection, sometimes a single product that perfectly captures the spirit of the brand, and when I write this I immediately think of the Cifra 3 clock (or the Loop postcard holder).

We love the corner of Berlin where we are, Linienstraße, it is one of the corners where Berlin is very and simply beautiful, perfect for a walk between Tacheles (now Fotografiska) and Kunstwerke, or further away the shops along Alte Schönauser Straße. Don’t forget the many wonderful galleries such as Neu, Neugerriemschneider or Robert Morat. If you just want to do some shopping, find a gift for yourself, your loved ones or friends at home, we are the right place for you; but MAPchen can suggest other amazing shops owned by women. Linienstraße, Auguststraße, Oranienburgerstraße, Mulackstraße are streets where you can happily lose yourself.

Before we decided to open a shop we used to work in the art world and this background gave us a special approach to the meaning of objects: we truly believe that objects have the power to create a better environment where you can feel better, where you can be better.
This is the reason why we think that it’s always important to know more about how a product was made, the process and the story behind it.
We truly hope to give you a nice atmosphere where you can enjoy your shopping experience also here, online.

We care that your tour experience with us will be a comfortable experience, visit us in person if you have the occasion, visit us online if you are not in Berlin, write us if you have any question, we are happy to help you.
