About

Mateo Berry is a Honduran-American creative director, designer, and creative consultant based in Los Angeles. Working at the intersection of fashion, design, culture, and storytelling, he partners with brands to create work that is both visually compelling and culturally relevant.

His creative journey began through skateboarding and photography, where documenting people, style, and movement developed an instinct for visual storytelling that continues to shape his work today. What started behind the camera evolved into building brands, designing products, directing campaigns, and consulting on creative strategy—allowing him to approach every project through both an artistic and strategic lens.

As the founder of Reserved Essential and co-creator of La Sainte Air, Berry has established a multidisciplinary practice rooted in craftsmanship, intentional design, and timeless aesthetics. His work spans creative direction, product design, brand consulting, commercial campaigns, and visual storytelling, with each project guided by the belief that great design should communicate something beyond the surface.

His work has been featured in Vogue, GQ, and Complex, reflecting a career built on collaboration across fashion, design, and culture.

Whether developing a product, consulting on a campaign, directing creative, or appearing in front of the camera, Berry approaches every opportunity with the same objective: to create thoughtful work with lasting impact. Rather than following trends, he focuses on creating work that is authentic, intentional, and enduring—work that leaves a lasting impression long after the moment has passed.
