ERNEST PERERA
Ernest Perera combines his sculpture studies at the Fine Arts Faculty with industrial design at the Elisava School in Barcelona. He founded Ernest Perera Design Studio in 1999 and designs products and experiences to help companies become more competitive. Each project is defined by new concepts with ad hoc solutions. In 2006, he set up his own home-product maker Amor de Madre, which gives him the freedom to create and experiment with diverse articles for households and their members. Since 1998, he has taught at several design universities in Barcelona. He has worked with companies including Camper, Lékué, Delica, Mago Urban, Almalight, Museo Picasso, Rumitag, Artesanía de Cataluña and ADI-FAD. He was selected for the DELTA ADI-FAD awards in Barcelona 2009 and won first prize at Les Découvertes Awards for Maison Objet, Paris (2008). He has exhibited at galleries worldwide and featured in diverse international design publications.
