dapting traditional manufacturing and assembly techniques to new construction and contemporary design needs.

Their interest in integrating product design and architecture has led them to collaborate in a wide range of sectors such as ceramics, gla

ss, general upholstery, metalwork, woodwork and furniture, amongst many others. They have carried out various product design projects through the “The Spanish Foundation for Innovation in Crafts” and have received several prizes for design applied to craf

twork. They have also been awarded with prizes for architecture and interior design and have participated in various collective exhibitions.

Their projects are recognised on an international level in specialist publications and on leading sector-s

gn (IED). In addition, they have also served on the Culture Commission of the Official Architects’ Association of Castile-La Mancha, where they were involved in the creation and launch of Architecture Week in Toledo.
