Saintleo is a New York–based design and production studio operating at the intersection of metal, furniture, and spatial design.
Founded by Leon McKay after his studies of engineering in Melbourne, Australia, Saintleo took shape as an architectural project workshop in Auckland, New Zealand. Following Leon’s interests in music, art and architecture, Saintleo has since evolved into a studio for special projects, collaborations and limited-edition pieces, now based and operating in Brooklyn, New York. Each project reflects Leon’s visual language of design, detail and craftsmanship, combining an eclectic use of raw materials with a refined, contemporary sensibility.

The Mesh Vinyl Credenza combines Inox Stainless Steel mesh and plate, forming open compartments for amplifiers, storage, and vinyl. The interplay between solid and perforated surfaces creates a balance of opacity and transparency, allowing light, shadow, and structure to remain visible throughout the piece.
Originally built as Leon's personal music station, the unit was later sold upon completion. The design process followed no formal plans or drawings; instead, the piece was developed intuitively, guided by proportion, materials, Imagination and a desire to expose rather than conceal its construction.
The work emphasizes honesty in structure and surface - allowing function, framework, and negative space to coexist as a single architectural object.
