“everything in this world leads us to this moment�
WHO I AM
Throughout the years I have evolved into a rather artistic side, I could say. I’ve drawn since I have use of reason and is perhaps one of the best things I most like in this world. When I was young I started drawing over a sofa and the situations I’ve encountered with the beauty of things, these have led me to consider what I am now studying and learning, design. I am a person that I firmly believe, as how we do things and the way as we do, can determine the course of humanity. I think the key to it all is in how we design all
either a fork, a chair, or a system to make more efficient irrigation in infertile regions of the Sahara. Invent, develop, evolve and change, are some of the key elements in the design of things. Arguably am a dynamic person who believes in constant progress. I love sports. Maybe it is the second thing that fills me after creating and drawing. Along with nature and the cosmos, these factors are vital in my day to day. My fascination with the origin of things, and future development of humanity make me feel, never better say, a man.

TONI BACH PHOTOGRAPHY LOGO new logo for Toni Bach Photography, based on your own firm
This logo is intended to Toni Bach a photographer from Barcelona. The concept of the logo is based on firms performing artists to mark their works. To carry first hand drawing. From pencil to pen. Having chosen the firm chosen sketch proceeded to scan the drawing. With a computer illustration program I vectorized your own signature. A vectorized on outer circle is added to create an image over logo.
The black color is chosen as the element of color is not essential in this concept and the image you want to refect the photograph. The bank is used in the image where the black color is more abundant. I could say that the logo cast in this way gives an air hand made product. Which really makes the client. No typography but chose a writing style.
BANANA LOGO Fruit shop logo created by some sketches
This logo is part of the subject “Drawing and Design” and it was created from a series of preliminary sketches drawing a real banana. By performing many sketches and searching some identificative elements of the fruit, we’ve first applied different points on the surface of some of my drawings in order to remove the drawing and just stay with. The inclination of the points creates the sensation of a 3D banana. This logo has been vectorized and scanned. The chose typography is a different sketch of the many made and then vectorized. The three color proposals are black and white, gray scale and with yellow letters.
These are some of the sketches before vectoring elements chosen to produce the logo. My intention was to generate starting playing with many different technical proposals and information. I chose some and developing and synthesizing to find what worked best.
CAMPING VIP LOGO A new logo for the travel agency CampingVip
This project is based on remodeling a logo of a campsite on the Costa Brava called CampingVip. The company wanted a modern look but at the same time they still wanted to maintain its original essence and aesthetics. The drafting process was divided into three phases; primarily, the analysis stage from the original logo and concept. I mean, what do we have? What do they need? Then I realized that what defined the company was the versatility, since their campsites were in different places, very different between them. On the other hand, it needed a modern and attractive image that could connect the user with the experience of spending their holiday at CampingVip.
Thus, I thought I could play with the use of photography to connect to the public. So I needed a logo that could adapt to different possible backgrounds. I needed a figure with transparent spaces that allow placement on any surface, and at the same time allowing the elements that were in the background give a more dynamic character to the logo and thus also to the company. The logo was provided in 4 different colors (black, dark gray, orange and blue) in order to be applied in the necessary contexts since the company has several thematics.
VAPMANIA GRAPHIC IDENTITY Graphic identity of a company of electronic cigarettes
Vapmania is a store, and also a online store of electronic cigarettes. Vapmania is the fondness for “vaping� term used by people who use electronic cigarettes. Your corporate image had a series of technical specifications such as using the red element and incorporate a classic yet modern line with the product. After many drawings and sketches, we decided to chose for classic references created nowadays. Elements with class, referring to a quality product. We look for a logo incorporating letters but also with an icon to represent the electronic cigarette. That icon was the steam engine. After drawing the steam engine in the most possible way we developed a synthetic typography in line with steam and the product image with
class that required us. We decided to make a typography redesigning another actual typography. Finally with the figure of the steam engine and a good typography vectorized proceeded to find that red and other colors were using. Finely selected colors were red that bordered the orange and dark gray with a hint of blue.
The client asked us for logos, and also for a retro-illuminated sign a banner and two side banners for physical store. To the online shop asked us, the graphical part of the website, images of products, some banners and some flyers. The logos was registed to avoid problems of plagiarism from other electronic cigarette companies.

MASSIVE POWDER Creating my branded project with the name Massive Powder and its corresponding logo.
The MassivePowder brand was created with the idea of giving the snowboarding sport worldwice access. The intention was to make a snowboarding brand for all lovers of this sport. This project consists on a blog inspired on snowboarding and everything that surrounds it. The logo is represented with the letters “M” and “W”. In reality it´s the same figured but oppositely positioned. They symbolize the ridges and valleys of the mountains where it the sport is contextualized and practiced.
During the process of development I utilized a mapping program used to measure the lines and angles that make up the logo in order to perform a fully symmetrical shape. Once created, offset lines like diamond to create an effect in the outline of the silhouette. In this way, I played with the shadows in order to create a 3D effect.
LET IT STORM T-SHIRT First t-shirt design for Massive powder
It has made use of five different fonts to achieve the following composition. I was searching for rural/ countryside elements and characteristics that reminded of snow sports. The slogan “Let it storm” is a call to the snow. In the center of the graph the word “Storm” appears since it´s the strongest word of the composition. The circle closes and unifies the typographical elements. In the composition, white has been used on top of black in order to strengthen the contrast. White has been chosen since the snow is white and it stands out in its original context.
KICK AIR HOODY Second design of a hoody for Massive Powder brand
I created this element for a sweatshirt of the MassivePowder brand. This time, the protagonist is the “kick air” or jump. It is a ramp to jump with snowboard or skis. The ramps have two sides; a flat side and an inclined side. These two figures are used to create a symbol, a figure that is understood by any person that knows about the subject. And it is, again, destined to people that practice snow sports. On the right appears the figure while the “jump cut” is located on the same space as the typographical composition. The word
chosen is “Massive Powder” and it is complemented by the phrase “Happy riding” on the upper part of the chart and “since 1991” on the bottom. The typography used is BigNoodletitlin serif with rounded shapes and a lot of black. An aggressive and strong typography was used but without losing the seriousness that the brand wants to convey.
DOSE FESTIVAL POSTER Festival poster made with pin-hole camera and post-edited
Making a poster for a public event by using a pinhole photography and post-production and editing. After building a pin hole camera, we proceeded to photograph an element after which to make a poster. The poster is urban character because I wanted to refer to a festival of underground music. I chose a graffiti in the streets of Barcelona. In the photo of 4 min exposure to two people to place their movements create a series of shades that symbolize the people of this style of electronic music.
Afterwords taking the photograph is revealed step analog. The importance of sharpness in the picture is essential to develop a quality poster. After development proceeded to edit and place typography indicating the name of the event dates and place. Building on the black space that emerged from the shadow of a street. Dose graffiti letters are edited and painted with an image editing program.

COLOR CUBE Chromatic study on a cube
The cube is a story. Graph tells a story about our world. There are three stages: The exterior, intermediate and interior. Which are formed by primary and tertiary colors. The structure is made up of the tertiary colors: turquoise, orange and yellow to violet. And the interior is made up of the primary colors blue, magenta and yellow. The relationship between the primary and tertiary is just an approximation similarly attitude with its meaning. Abroad: find the main element, nature, vegetation, wildlife, mountains, the sky. Elements that referenced the colors turquoise and tertiary primary blue, the color symbolic soothed our planet, Earth. In the middle: We see the children in this world, the city, the crowds, the industry, pollution and rep-
etition. This has as distinctive colors like purple and magenta as a support base. It is an artificial color, unusual in nature, which makes it perfect to symbolize your content. The last but not least: Inside: The interior of our being, the heart, the love, the individual, religion or belief and physical growth or interior. Everything is within us, but inside us we are the universe. The reference color is yellow, the color of the sun, the light of divinity. Yellow is the basis and support is a tertiary yellow, orange yellow. The point of view of these three buckets as it related to what nature mixed with civilization and the individual, the three colors merge to create n ‘I walnuts. These are a mixture of three primary colors CMY. Cyan, Magenta, Yellow. They mix with all other secondary colors. Green, Red and Blue.

LUMINARY Prototype luminary with water and fluorescent methacrylate
This work is to develop their own means one blaze. Various aspects of lighting, luminance, materials and light behavior are analyzed to create a lamp according own requirements. At first we wanted to create a light that could be used both in a study table to illuminate the work area, to illuminate the environmental spaced and relaxed manner. We opted for sketches in which a light that had two positions are illustrated. This was one of the main concepts. But finally we decided to opt for greater experimentation with materials and we chose water, plastic, wood and fluorescent methacrylate. The lamp is intended to illuminate a space ambient way. He thought about how to put the lamp inside a bag of water and after
many ideas we decided to apply the light at one end of a cylinder and methacrylate this light transported outside of the bag inside. A system to remain attached to the bag room where was the LED and its anchoring system managed to ceiling. The materials according to their function are: Led, cable with plug transformer, aluminum tube to pass the cable through the casing, wood to protect the LED and hold the bag. Bag of clear polyurethane to enter the water and orange methacrylate fluorescent to transmit light into the water. The result was better than expected, the water movement caused a most curious effects of light on surfaces.

ECO’NEILL PACKAGING Redesign a new, more ecological packaging for O’neill
EcOneill packaging is a project of remodeling a box of shoes surf. Specifically about socks. The project had to choose one packaging footwear and redesign to make it more ecological. Our group was focused on sports shoes, focusing on the sport of surfing. During the development of packaging, we seek to define a typology for the student. In order to improve the sustainability of packaging of packaged. Improve usability and functionality and environmental image packaging. We analyze the cardboard and its environmental impact, with an analysis of the life cycle, a study on the carbon footprint and VEA to compare with the previous packaging redesigned. During the work we saw that the cardboard box we had an impact of
1.6 g of CO2 per kg of packaging. The new redesign recycle used fishing nets to make a bag containing shoes inside. Thereby eliminating the carton and plastic bag for transport. In addition to reducing the impact, increase its functionality and extend the life of the packaging, we contribute to the project of protecting marine biosphere of Sea Odyssey, which participates Oneill. Sea Odyssey environmental marine ecosystems and beaches. The new packaging step of having a carbon footprint of 1.6 to 0.1 g per kg of Co2

SPEAKER Building a speaker starting a few magnets and a copper wire
Wood, cardboard, copper, magnets, an elastic fabric... Few more things that are used to create a speaker. The work consisted in 4 magnets and a copper wire. Which are the primary elements of a speaker. After making many chose sketches operating system so that we would work and build.
Cut wood 10cm x 10cm square sections to the speaker box. From wood carvings create a cube. Pierce the top of the circle with a radius of 4cm. Then look a magnet in the middle of the timber bottom. Knowing the intensity of sound varies with the number of magnets we have and we have 4 magnets, which can be assembled and dismantled, the mag-
nets will be superimposed on the remaining fixed. Coil made of covers, has made between 100 and 200 laps wound around magnets. To determine the length of the perimeter of the magnet we use. P = πD or 2πr

We create a cone from a sheet of paper because this is light and enable greater vibration. This will fit on top of the cube, ie the hole. Consider the cone from two pieces of paper, two of the sides of the cube. That way we adjust the vibration of the paper, as if moved very perturvacions create the sound.

To measure the sound intensity, we use the amplifier and adapted SLM al’altaveu, about 5cm apart. Keep in mind that when measured maintain a fixed volume. The sound intensity increases with frequency, there comes a time when this stabilizes. The sound intensity is greater when we have the largest number of magnets.
PARASITE MASK ACUMULATING Mask design for the Accumulating pice of dance for Aimar Pérez Galí Mask design and production for the choreographer and dancer Aimar Pérez Galí, for Sâlmon Festival from Barcelona. The piece named Accumulating is based on the sound, light, and movement accumulation starting on the contemporary ritual of clubbing culture and choreographic minimalism. The piece takes two historical moments of the, dance and music of 70’s start: paradigm change to a post-modern dance with Judson Dance Theatre collective, and techno begginings from Detroit.
Parasite tries to eliminate the facial physiognomy of the dancer, so the user can’t perceive his face. The concept comes from Aimar Pérez Galí, in giving importance to the choreography and not who is on stage. Our mask wants to get this effect from the apparent simplicity of the geometry. On the other hand, we have had techno music as reference, and therefore the digital age, virtualizing the human figure. We geometrized facial features, generating a virtual character.

SPACE
LUNCH AND FUN beach picnic Playful public space and entertainment in district of Barceloneta in Barcelona
The objective of this project was to use a local Barceloneta beach in Barcelona to create a public space to eat, relax or do some playful activity. One of the most important elements was to create a publicly spaced. An area of the municipality, in which they can perform activities such as: eating, resting, drinking, washing dishes, storing, washing ... The modules are 6.5m x 6.5m and can be used up to 3 modules In our case we use the three integral. During the process we
analyze the proposed context, performing a public barbecues and a picnic tables with installation of two public bathrooms at the ends of space. Before we analyze the environment, customs, people, flows, local, time, transport, to best accommodate our concept. During the Station building explanatory model sketches, drawings, renderings and planimetry were performed, were sought concerning. We apply furean materials useful for space, and place a system to maintain night shutters controlled overnight picnic.

To use the model integrates so cardboard mock-up. The scale of the model is 1:20 We only use material other carton pen to explain a little colored areas of the facility. The end result just forming a barbecue in the back of the room from one end to the other. By placing two bathrooms and areas of recycling bins at the lateral ends and a few tables in the front of the premises. The tables were the most difficult element to solve because we wanted to conceptualize miss unify people without creating a table across the room. We got 4 tables creating 1.1 m by 3 m long and tilting towards the ends of the other tables.

REDESIGN OF A SPACE Study of my kitchen and subsequent redesign of this one The interior design consists of three elements: structure, form and function. The structure of the space has a fixed and unvarying character, but the space structure has certain characteristics. It is important to know the location, shape and size.
arranged in three-dimensional patterns according to the directives functional, aesthetic and behavior. The relationships between the elements established by visual qualities determine these patterns, functional adequacy.
During this project have described the current state of the kitchen, specifying the plane bounded plan, elevations and sections. Then I analyzed the installations plumbing, electrical, lighting, gas and smoke extraction. Also what materials and finishes would be made in my kitchen.
In the redesign of my kitchen I chose to hide the materials that blend with the kitchen and dining room. I searched how to make the kitchen a living room. Apart from Cambo surfaces and finishes have demolished the wall facing the dining room to place a sliding door that opens the kitchen or close it. Thus expanding both the kitchen space such as the living room.
First I draw sketches with measurements and finally I put measures a program of surveying. The purpose of any design is to organize the parts into a coherent whole to achieve certain objectives. The elements are
All maps are on a scale of 1:20 and details at 1:50. During the development process all the changes while maintaining aspect ratio of form and function.

LIGHTING
L’HORT DE LA LLUM VINÇON lighting installation in la sala Vinçon, Barcelona The installation l’Hort de la llum, is a large lamp, simple structure and known that this time instead of bearing fruit gives light. The facility has two rows of 5 tomato plants each, built on wooden pales painted white. Each tomato plant built in the traditional way, has different incandescent bulbs attached to the rods with the cable itself, simulating as the plant grows by the tomato. All incandescent bulbs are variable and on-off performance in loops 1 min 30 sec upstream of peak, slope of 1 min and 30 sec minimum point. All controlled with two dimers. Each loop intends to understand the growth of panta. A embolvente and organic experience. The High Point Lighting intends to
surround and visible installation, while the point of darkness gives birth every detail “tomato” while two points of intense light in the center of leftover produce a game that allow user interaction with the system.

The Lluèrnia festival, which in 2014 celebrated its third edition, each year invites an artist to design a garden of light. The gardener chosen on this occasion was the lighting designer Maria Güell, founder of the study The Invisible and curator of the festival of urban light LlumBCN.
LLUM BCN 2015 BATEC DE LLUM Light installation for the 2015 festival LlumBCN at Palau Bru ELISAVA participates in the 4th edition of the Festival BCN LAMP project Batec de llum, “Heartbeat of Light�, an ephemeral intervention in the courtyard of the Palace Bru, a large house built towards the end of the sixteenth or early seventeenth century. The Brown Palace is the headquarters of the General Society of Authors and Editors (SGAE) in Catalonia and the archive are recorded musical heritage of the country. Taking the concept of creation and registration as a soul project implicit in context, people become creative lighting space. Somewhere between the digital world and the natural world, the sound waves, light and water, together generating a single record: the human heartbeat light.
The project team makes ELISAVA space behaves like a box resonance where the presence of people is recorded and translated into light, beating the passage of visitors. The project is developed in two main schemes: the floor and ceiling. In space there are pools of different diameters, full of water illuminated with LEDs. Infrared cameras, located on the walls, detect the amount of people around a pond, the recording and transform this information in digital sound waves vibrate the speakers located beneath the ponds. The movement, like the beat of a heart generates waves and patterns in the water. These patterns are reflected on the walls and ceiling of the space, generating a light living space envelope.

This composition was edited with Photoshop. I chosed a photograph of a white van in order to illustrate its surface and giving it a real effect. You can appreciate how the accumulation of illustrations suit the vehicle’s structure.
These are some of the many rendres that I made this year. Renders both space and the latest products such as Stabilo marker or Bauhaus chess. Also make some interior design or spaces, and other objects like the Eames stools, or Paimio chair.
