Year: 2022, together with Júlia Esqué and Jaume Ramírez for Mobles114.
We designed a piece of furniture for sleeping, working and eating. It's composed of a thin canvas stretched over the PEY table system by Mobles114, which we have slightly hacked. It is easily disassembled and transportable, and as suggested by its name the whole thing is superlight
Foundawtion is a non-profit organization that carries out vernacular projects to address architectural needs in economically disadvantaged areas. CEM Kamanar, led by the Daw Office architecture studio, is the first project of this foundation: a school for more than 500 high school students in Thionck Essyl, a village in the Casamance area, south of Senegal.
This manual is a project in collaboration with Bendita Gloria for the foundation. More than the result of the work done, these pages contain everything that was necessary for the manufacture of the furniture collection designed for the CEM Kamanar school.
A collection that has sought the most optimal relationship between efficiency and comfort, prioritizing making things as easy as possible for each stage of the process: from design, material selection, construction, and/or maintenance.
The school in operation in 2020.
Throughout the design and manufacturing period of all the furniture, workshops and related projects were carried out to raise funds and promote the project.
A good example is L'Art de Construir, a workshop organized by Ester Rovira and in collaboration with Claudia Valsells. During a week and with a group of more than 20 children, more than 30 chairs from the collection were manufactured and painted.
AOO
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.
