Alejandro Valdés
Trained in industrial design and marketing, Alejandro Valdés (Asturias, Spain, 1975) began his design trajectory in Milan and Barcelona working at Fiat Auto Advanced Design, Bonetto Design and Mario Ruiz design studio.
From 2008 to 2019 he worked with Lievore Altherr Molina focused on the design development and project management of collections for Andreu World, Arper, Enea, Donati, Fast, Foscarini, Sellex, Tecno, Tribù and Verzelloni.
In 2015 he completed the Master in Marketing Management at the EAE business school in Barcelona, which broadened his design strategic vision with an underlined "sense of market".
With a natural sensitivity towards product design and a deep knowledge of technology and industrial processes, in 2019 he took the next step in his career when he opened his own studio in Barcelona.
His approach to design is honest, essential and contemporary, seeking the natural balance that results from recognizable gestures, attention to details and coherent use of materials.
Besides his work as a designer, Valdés is lecturer on the Master in Furniture Design at Elisava design school of Barcelona.
