Alex Fernández Camps
Alex Fernández Camps came to design after a multidisciplinary background. Trained as a technical architect, he has also carried out multiple works of artistic practice using media such as painting, photography and installation; simultaneously with the practice of industrial design, where he has now focused the activity of his studio, with the vocation to influence the objects around us; understanding the object as a cultural element, and essentially in a functional way on a human scale, where the form has a function in itself.

Christophe Mathieu
Everyone knows that the Canary islands have the best climate in the world, or at least that's what Christophe's parents thought when they left Germany and Belgium to settle in Spain in the 1960s. He started working with his architect father and decided to study interior design in Barcelona; after finishing his studies, he went to Milan and that was where he discovered industrial design. Over time, he missed the Mediterranean character, and decided to return to Barcelona where he opened his own studio. Proportions, beauty, surprise and seduction are the basis of his designs. His lamps, as objects of light, seek to warmly and gently illuminate spaces. The emotional aspects are always present in the use and functionality, without forgetting that although the main function is to illuminate, the lamp itself is also illuminated, becoming an observed object that occupies a place in the space.

The relevance of the concept in the creative process, the research in the historical and socio-cultural context, the experimentation with different materials, the attention for the details, the exploration in new typologies, the active involvement of the user, the search for a poetic gesture and the use of a particular sense of humour, are among the essential aspects that emerge in the projects of Emiliana Design Studio.
