Raised and educated by the sea, Carlos Guijarro is a rational and sensitive furniture designer influenced by the Mediterranean style of life. He studied Industrial Design at ELISAVA School of Design in Barcelona (2008/2011). There he had the opportunity to develop his professional skills with great masters, learning the most advanced design techniques and methodologies. Once finished, he worked for different firms in Spain, England, Germany, Netherlands, Denmark and Indonesia, becoming the creative we know nowadays. Back in his hometown Alicante, he runned his own office in 2016 and 2017 being focused on furniture and space design. Due to a competition he was part of during 2016, he got a scholarship to study a Master in Interior & Living Design at the prestigious university DOMUS Academy in Milano. He was graduated with honors in July 2018.

His style reflects all his experiences combining a clear influence of Scandinavian design with the vivacity of southern Europe. Rationalism, functionality and minimalism are the bases of his projects, where seductive forms and attractive materials are the key points of each of his designs.
