Nacho Carbonell

“I like to see objects as living organisms, imagine them coming alive and being able to surprise you with their behaviour. I want to create objects with my hands; then I can give them my personality. I turn them into communicative objects that can arouse one’s feelings and imagination. In short, what I want to create are objects with a fictional or fantasy element that allow you to escape everyday life,” says Nacho Carbonell.

Carbonell is known for his tactile approach to sculpture which plays with textures, experimental techniques, and natural materials.

Born in Spain in 1980 and now based in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, Carbonell works alongside his team of designers and artists in an open warehouse. He graduated in 2003 from Cardenal Herrera University in Spain and went on to study at the Design Academy Eindhoven. Upon graduating, he created collections such as Evolution in 2009, which won him a nomination for Beazley Design of the Year from the Design Museum in London.

In 2010, a year after being named a Designer of the Future at Design Miami/ Basel, he presented This Identity, redefining his current style of organic forms and rough and colourful textures. His pieces are part of private collections and museums around the world.
