From Catalan modernism by Antoni Gaudí to the FAD (Foment de les Arts i del Disseny) – a historic association that has supported design, craftsmanship, and applied arts in Barcelona for over 100 years – passing by Javier Mariscal – a designer and artist known for his bold and colorful style, famous for creating Cobi – and BD Barcelona Design – founded in 1972, this studio is one of the pioneers of industrial design in Spain, collaborating with renowned designers like Salvador Dalí, Ettore Sottsass, and Jaime Hayon.

Barcelona is the city of Design. It now has a museum worthy of this reputation.
