ALL THESE OBJECTS ARE UNIQUE
BUT THEY SHARE SOMETHING
SPECIAL: BARCELONA.
THE PATH OF CREATIVITY
The common theme of a story is that which gives it coherence and consistency.
This exhibition shows us the path to discovering a series of pieces with their own personality and discourse, imbued with something special. Design that is based on the talent and open-mindedness of Barcelona.
The selected objects are unique and their diversity is evidence of the transversality of Barcelona design. The Path of Creativity aims to transfer this singularity and authenticity of Barcelona design to the British capital.

Sierra.
Designed by Max Enrich.

Sierra is a table that eludes the language of the obvious. Its impossible surface goes against the mainstream, defiant to be like any other table. But after the first impact, the mind understands that it works with almost every situation a table stands for... a magazine, a tablet, a plate, a tray, a book... For the rest, use your imagination. Sierra is a table that makes you think twice and does not leave you indifferent.

Fill the watertank only 4 times a year and watering it superficially every 4 or 5 weeks. The result? Perfect plants with minimal maintenance. Thanks to the two tubes of our Hydroplanters, we get a permanent air minicirculation that makes the oxygenation of the water and its deepest roots easier, reproducing the workings of the nature

Projects. 2019.
Gárate Hausmann is the result of combining two people with very different personalities but with a curious and nomadic spirit. Any detail inspires them. Art, music, travel and individual experiences have made their interest in design grow. Interior design leads these two designers through different projects that they watch grow and end up feeling as theirs.
They work with the objective of creating an emotion for the user, the same feeling experienced when they see the evolution of their work.
Gárate Hausmann offer much more than a final result looking for the balance between concept, space, design and experience.
