photoAlquimia is a spanish design studio, engaged in the search of creative solutions to develop new spaces, objects and events. Our philosophy is based on working with very simples concepts, allow time and silence necessary for ideas to arise in a natural way, all spiced with a good dose of love for each one of our designs. The nature, the different traditions and handicraft techniques are our main sources of inspiration. We believe that nature has a lot to tell us, we just need a bit of silence and patience to listen. We work mainly with natural materials, sustainable and environmentally friendly, trying to melt into the production processes, the latest technologies, with the employment of the expert hand of artists and artisans. We believe that an object or space can enrich and even transform our lives. This is the reason that drives us to charge humanity on the designs that we make, transforming them into simple creations, as well as beautiful, eco-logicals, warm and friendly, but especially funcional.
