Who am I?
I´m Oscar, and I’m dedicated to this.
I solve problems by applying constructive methods and functional aesthetics that in the end make life better.
I believe that solutions are best brought to life by bringing people with different experiences together. I have an interest in products that have the ability to deeply change the behavior of people for the better, ranging from everyday life to extreme scenarios.

Personal
Design is a big part of my life, but it is not everything.
I also like to play theatre, further immerse myself in architecture and listen to music. Currently I´m listening a lot to Phil Collins!
