About me
I'm an integrated hands on art director, stylist and set designer with strong conceptual thinking and storytelling with more than 15 years of experience. Coming up with big ideas and executing them in any kind of format are some of my key skills. Some agencies and studios include JWT, McCann, Leo Burnett, Vice magazine, Oliver and own design studio in Barcelona that focused on lighting, sculptural furniture and installations. I worked for clients such as Unilever, Nespresso, Kimberley Clark, Tesco, Hennessy, Burberry among others. In 2016 I founded Texas and the Artichoke, a brand of silk scarves and soft furnishings that has been featured in Vogue and Elle Decoration and sold in Anthropologie and several shops in the US, UK and rest of Europe. Nowadays I'm also focused in set design and prop styling for window displays, commercials and photo shoots. Clients include Bombay Sapphire, Beefeater, Samsung, Abbey Road studios and prestigious stores like Harrods and John Lewis. Born and raised in Argentina, I'm now based in London.
