MISSION
STATEMENT
As a Creative Director of my studio, I have the skills to coordinate and direct
large work teams, as well as stimulate the creativity of each member.
My mission is to communicate beauty, interpret and translate clients’ and
brands’ ideas and messages, and help spread them out in a creative way.
One of my favourite things is to travel to design fairs, design festivals and
biennales seeking inspiration and trend forecasting. I believe this is key to
keep up-to-date in my creations.
FEATURED
PROJECTS
Music Shows
Corporate Lounge Design for music shows during bands’ Latin American
Tours: some of these bands include Sir Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones,
U2, Coldplay, Depeche Mode and Kasabian. Each space had to respond not
only to the band’s original tour design but to the bands’ riders. The whole
process responded to the Tour Managers’ supervision.
G20 Global Forum
Table setting and flower arranging for the private lunch between Mr. Macron
(President of France) & wife, and Mr. Macri (President of Argentina) & wife
during the G20 Global Forum in Argentina. All the preparations included
meetings with the argentinean First Lady, Juliana Awada, and her assistants
as welll as with members of the National Ceremonials and Protocol
Department. The whole setting responded to very strict and international
security measures.
Louis Vuitton
Event Design for Le Dîner de Louis Vuitton: one of the main events taking
place in Buenos Aires for the launching of the first Louis Vuitton Pop Up
Store in Argentina. During the design process, reports to the LV Visual Teams
in New York and São Paulo had to be made. During the setting up of the
event, our team responded to the LV Visual Team‘s needs and requests.
Moët Hennessy
Product experience creation, brand book design and event design for
on-trade actions and events for Moët Hennessy Argentina’s brands and
cycles. Some of those include Veuve Clicquot Colorama, Veuve Clicquot
Carnaval, Le Baron by Baron B, Nuit Baron B, Délice Tour by Chandon Délice,
Chandon at Home, and Chandon Apéritif.
Stella Artois
Creation of “Mesa Compartida” by Stella Artois, a foodie cycle designed in
response to the brand’s need to relate more closely to high-end gastronomy.
Mesa Compartida consists on a cycle of Pop-Up dinners where famous chefs
cook to an unknown group of people in unique and non-conventional places.
Dîner en Blanc
Event design and table setting for the two editions of the internationally
known Dîner en Blanc event in Buenos Aires. An average of one thousand
people, dressed in total white, attended each edition where the location
was totally secret until the very last moment, and where everything had to be
set up in less than eight hours.
