A SHORT INTERVIEW WITH LUIS GIMENO


I AM...
Luis Gimeno
, a furniture and lighting designer based in Barcelona.



I DO...

I design objects and furniture that bring warmth, playfulness, and a sense of care into people’s everyday lives.



CHILDHOOD TO ME IS...
A time of endless curiosity, where every object could become a toy and every corner an adventure. It’s the place where imagination first started shaping the way I see the world — full of colors, textures, and stories. Childhood to me is a treasure chest that I often return to for inspiration, because it reminds me of the joy of creating without limits.  

IMAGINATION TO ME IS...
The spark that turns ideas into possibilities. It’s like an invisible tool that allows me to dream beyond function and find new ways of making objects speak to people. Imagination is both freedom and play, but also a guide — it pushes me to keep experimenting, learning, and challenging what design can be.  

MY FAVOURITE OBJECT IS...
Designing lamps is always a joyful process for me — I love experimenting with light and color, and there’s something deeply satisfying about seeing how they transform a space.

MY FAVOURITE COLOUR IS...
A soft orange, calming but full of energy.
