About me
I am a 29 year-old designer, specialized in ephemeral installations, set design and art direction. I also founded in 2013 (fos), a little creative studio focused on ephemeral design, and worked at different communications departments. I am always looking for brand new exciting design experiences.
Projects
  • The hovse
    The hovseIt's been 3 years since it opened up its doors. This abandoned house in the heart of Madrid, comes back to life, differently, every Christmas, until December 24th. Big rooms, high ceilings, a bar and a gorgeous rooftop are part of the plan. Furnitures, cashmere and leather goods, jewelry, gourmet products, books or even a bicycle. A shop that is alive changing almost everyday for the Christmas season.
  • The Table By
    The Table ByA restaurant of restaurants that has hosted 12 different restaurants all around Spain. Every 6 weeks the same space is redesigned and site specific installations transforms the restaurant into a new one. A game of perceptions between food and interior design that takes you far away without moving from the city.
  • Heineken Instant Beer Machine
    Heineken Instant Beer MachineWindow installation for La Academia del Despiece. Madrid.
  • We are knitters
    We are knittersFake documentary shortfilm, to explain the real problems some "knitters" go through when they start knitting. The aim is making them feel they are not alone and letting them know they can find online support.
  • Malababa
    MalababaShooting for Malababa. Bárdena Blanca Collection. Assistant director. Directed by Inés Ybarra.
  • (fos)
    (fos)www.cargocollective.com/somosfos It means light in Greek and melted in Catalan. In this project has been represented by a skin that covers both vertical and horizontal surfaces. The protected façade of the vegan restaurant Rayen at Lope de Vega street in Madrid has been illuminated for 4 days and nights by more than 250lm of yellow duct tape, painted décor items, pineapples and... a lamp. A visual game between perspective and colored volumes that gained the looks.
