Designers

In 2003, José Manuel Ferrero founded estudi{H}ac aiming to bring to life all the ideas that kept popping into his head. Over the past 20 years, he has turned his design atelier into a national and international design benchmark. One could say that the British term “Bespoke” is the dogma that governs each of the Valencian industrialist’s designs since he creates custom-made pieces or elements for specific projects.

The strength of the spot, the subtlety in the tracings and the creative wealth merge into UON, design studio located in Seville. With more than 15 years working in the world of design, its creators, coming from the fields of art, design and architecture, endow their work with a strong sensitivity and artistic vision, which translates into delicate figurative compositions at the same time that in expressive and powerful abstract designs, always with a singular use of color.

After studying at the Royal College of Art in London, his experience in Camper and some time living in Japan, the international designer decided to move to Spain in 2008 to establish his studio.

Among his numerous projects, he has collaborated with companies such as Lzf-Lamps, Nani Marquina, Velcro®, Sancal or chef Andreu Genestra of El Bulli.

His studio approaches design from an integral point of view, since "a designer must be able to propose a wide range of solutions", while participating in all the productive stages.

Multidisciplinary creative studio that is characterized by simple but innovative, timeless and functional designs. It was founded by Clara del Portillo and Álex Selma in 2006.

Throughout their career, they have received numerous and prestigious design awards worldwide. Among others, the Red Dot, the IF Design Award, the Good Design or the Wallpaper* Design Award.

Crea believes in the process of design as a result of the combination in between the needs of the user and the company requirements. Their goal in each project is to create the perfect match for both parts. 

During the design process they study and implement objective aspects such as: functionality, price, materials and finishes; as well as subjective aspects such as emotions. 

Their passion for design with more than 15 years of experience in the product design field, has given Crea the knowledge and skills needed to face any design challenge.  

"Everything I do starts with a theme and an emotion. It´s a total joy to work with craftspeople to bring my designs to life for contemporary audiences".
