An improvised tennis court in the middle of the Town Hall square in Logroño. Pista Central is a fleeting exercise that consists of bringing a tennis court to a public space. Unlike other types of sports, such as football, basketball, petanque or ping pong, we don’t usually find tennis courts in public spaces.
To put it in context, or rather out of context, the court is located in the middle of a square surrounded by a grandstand and crossed by a net, both pieces made of a scaffolding structure, emphasising its ephemeral and street character. A space for play, meeting and decontextualisation.

About
I am a furniture designer, born in 1983 on the island of Mallorca and based in Barcelona. I work on commissioned, industrial and custom furniture projects, whether for individuals, brands, companies, or for my own practice. I’m particularly interested in the relationship between design and development, and much of my practice is grounded in that dialogue.
My work is grounded in simplicity, honesty and clear construction. I’m interested in archetypes and direct solutions: a chair as a chair, a table as a table. I try to remove everything that doesn’t add structural or material sense, focusing on structure, material logic, synthesis and the mechanics behind each object.
The result is often straightforward, sometimes rough pieces, where construction is visible and materials are used as they are. Screws are not hidden, joints are not disguised. Austerity here is not a style or a concept, but a working position, often taken to a radical level. I see design as a practical craft, closer to making than to explaining. In the end, it’s about making clear decisions and standing by them.
