In mid 2022, I start a new trajectory in my studio in Oiartzun, near San Sebastian, after almost a decade of shared experience in Iratzoki & Lizaso studio.

I consider myself a meticulous designer, aware of the importance of all the processes involved in the creation of an object, from the first sketch to the manufacture, so that the final result is the right one.

I work on the design of each product from a humble position, as just another phase in the process of creating the object, just as important as the work of the cabinetmaker, the blacksmith or the upholsterer.

From a curious and rigorous point of view, I look for the truth in each of the strokes that define the object, using the right lines and taking care of the beauty of each one of them.

I seek to endow the objects I design with affectivity. I imagine them as part of the set of pieces we surround ourselves with throughout our lives. Something perennial, which ideally will remain with us for a long time. I consider it important to give objects a depth, a story to tell.

I think there is a need for more honesty in design. Ours is a field where there is a surplus. I prefer two accurate and honest words to long paragraphs devoid of content.

And I do all this vocationally. I love it. I am aware of the environmental implications of being an active part of the productive machinery of consumption. That vocation I therefore try to apply in the most responsible way. One of the ways to make our trade a sustainable one is to come up with fair and correct solutions that generate links with the user, that make their value last over time and that are "around" in our lives.

I owe much of what I do today to Jean Louis Iratzoki. He taught me to think for design. In my youth, the desire to print gestures. To pull back a little and ask ourselves why we do what we do.
