Showcase & Discover Creative Work

My name is Alex and I am a fully qualified Designer with several years professional experience and a long list of satisfied clients. I can manage many aspects of creativity so I'd rather consider myself as a deliverer of ideas.

I'm deep in love with furniture design, product design and, most generally, the relation between mankind and domestic landscapes.
I support sustainability, recycling and creative reuse and this is my personal ethical attitude.

Technically, I am polyglot: I can speak 6 languages (4 of them fluently) but basically I just love comparing different cultures, mentalities and habits. This is why I often ask so many questions!
I'm pretty open-minded and love to travel around the world.

I am currently working as product design in Valencia, Spain. Read Less
