Silla 8
First Silla 8 prototype ever
The first rough pre-series of 6 units of Silla 8 was the Tregebov, as it was commissioned by Pablo Tregebov upon seeing the first prototype
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.

Pepitu
Year: 2015 Produced by AOO from 2015 to 2020.
Pepitu is a redesign of the common folding beach lounger.
First prototype, reproducing the original
To improve comfort, the inclination between the backrest and the seat was changed, achieving sufficient stability thanks to the curvature in the front legs.
Pepitu has different versions and models over the years.
Pepe was an XL version
Pepi was the chair version
Pepitu Surt was a first outside version made of iroko

Cajón Wally
Year: 2014 Produced by Teulat since 2026. Produced by AOO from 2014 to 2020.
Cajón Wally originates from the boxes used in film and advertising, known as apple boxes, versatile elements that can serve during shoots as support, seat, or step depending on the side on which they are placed.
Normales was a previous collection of basic pieces that inspired the final version of the Cajón Wally

Cajón Wally recovers that logic and transfers it to a domestic context, offering a piece with three usable heights (25, 35, and 45 cm) that make it a side table, footrest, or stool. Three of its sides also incorporate a circular hole that allows for easy transport and enables it to be used as a small container, as well as aesthetically connect with the rest of the collection.
Normales collection had a cable-roll
