The sign is already outside my house, and I will start doing the garden tomorrow, prepare the house and stock for the event, so if you live in London, this Festival is a great opportunity to buy directly from the many artists/designers that will take part,...

designersmakers NEW market in London

It makes me very happy to see NEW venues for designers/makers popping up, specially if they are as well thought, marketed and curated as this one is. This new market is called designermakers, and it is not just a market, it is a venue for networking, and spreading the word about the good design practice. It has always been a dream of mine to create something similar back home in Gran Canaria, as there is a luck of projects such as this to support...

A relaxed and gorgeous weekend...

Back from a peaceful, relaxed and gorgeous weekend, I have spent the last two days in the remote and quiet town of La Aldea de San Nicolas, a small town far far from the rest of the world.

Amazing sunny renovation!

I am in Gran Canaria, got here yesterday after having missed my flight from London on Monday, due to a huge accident on the motor-way that leads to the airport.
