In 2017 she took the position of Creative and Communication Deputy Director of the company and Creative Director of Diabla. An interdisciplinary creative and plastic artist, she develops her work from the visual arts and collective memory, applied to the design of objects and communication. Her work, linked to light and nature, has been part of national and international exhibitions. Her furniture and object designs have been awarded in various competitions, including NYCxDesign, DNA Paris Design Awards, European Design Awards, and German Design Awards.
It is a collection that, therefore, gives continuity to local craftsmanship through its fabrics, protecting it and taking it to another level by being made with innovative sustainable fibers, from post-consumer plastic waste and suitable for outdoor use. But, in addition, this collection is also a tribute from its designer, Alejandra Gandía-Blasco Lloret, to nomadic communities.
Inspired by the minimum of belongings with which nomadic peoples move, the Nomad collection is made up of a series of very light cushions, poufs and rugs with which it is possible to create ephemeral, relaxed, informal and changing environments, capable of transmitting that feeling of home and rest that nomadic communities achieve. The idea is that with the sum and combination of its different elements and models, different scenarios can be projected in which to lie down, lie down or sit, with the most agile movement and deployment possible, both from one place to another and within the same space.
The Nomad Inuit Grey cushion has a triangle pattern, in pink and gray. The other five models in the collection feature other colours and patterns with checkered, herringbone, wool knit, small flowers or geometric designs.
