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.

And here is a random and condensed selection of various other works completed in recent years:

II am a furniture designer, born in 1983 on the island of Mallorca and based in Barcelona. I work on commissioned, industrial and custom furniture projects, whether for individuals, brands, companies, or for my own practice. I’m particularly interested in the relationship between design and development, and much of my practice is grounded in that dialogue.

My work is grounded in simplicity, honesty and clear construction. I’m interested in archetypes and direct solutions: a chair as a chair, a table as a table. I try to remove everything that doesn’t add structural or material sense, focusing on structure, material logic and the mechanics behind each object.

The result is often straightforward, sometimes rough pieces, where construction is visible and materials are used as they are. Screws are not hidden, joints are not disguised. Austerity here is not a style or a concept, but a working position, often taken to a radical level. I see design as a practical craft, closer to making than to explaining. In the end, it’s about making clear decisions and standing by them.

The vast majority of the photos you will see on this website are from the following photographers: José Serrano (the one who most), Jara Varela, Coke Bartrina, Claudia Mauriño, Iris Humm, Salva López and Adrià Cañameras.

And the website has been designed by N&MS (Mark Bohle and Nam Huynh) and developed by Jonas List.
