Silla 8 is the result of an exercise in which flat plywood sheets are curved under pressure and in a simple way (without machinery), using different structures as support. Instantly and without molds, this process generates what end up being seats and backrests.

The resulting pieces consist of two frames joined together and stripped of any decorative element. Together with the backrest and seat, they create a comfortable, light, and uniquely designed chair.

The final version is made of solid koto wood and poplar plywood, making it ultralight.

To enhance its visual uniqueness, I collaborated with the artist Claudia Valsells, with whom we developed a series of color combinations that reflect her exploration of beauty. The chair conveys the tactile nature of the artwork through the palette; because what can be touched is tangible and brings us closer to its reality.

Each chair is painted in more than one color to emphasize the meaning of each when contrasted with the others.

7 Sillas 8 is the result of a collaboration that is not normally seen in the world of art and design; it is a dialogue between disciplines that converges on a common and unlikely final point for each of the participants and, ultimately, an excuse between two professionals that ends with a good friendship.

A project together with Oriol Villar from 2013 to 2020.

AOO was many things, but after all was a small and independent design company with the aim of making high-quality and honest wood furniture.

Wood was the starting point for our pieces, for several reasons; for its smell, its warmth, its human scale when working with it, but above all for being the most direct material you can find in nature.

Year: 2019, for Pepi de Boissieu.

Pepi's kitchen is a very easy and very difficult exercise. As a food designer, her kitchen is her sanctuary, and almost unintentionally, that's how it turned out. It's a kitchen based on conversations, where the content and the container form a better team than ever.

It's very green, very solid wood (beech mostly) and for some reason, not sought after, it kindly reminds us of the interior of a ship.
