Questions & Answers

 Julz: Pablo you live and work in Ibiza, known for its famous night-life and its  beautiful nature- why would you not move to another place?

Pablo: Ibiza is the perfect place to live for a designer. The White Island is a luxury brand between world class architects, artists and writers. It's like a millionaires club with a touch of vintage lifestyle.

Julz: It's sometimes not easy to find a good balance between work and recreation. How do you fill up with energie?

Pablo: I know of a hidden little beach in Ibiza with no tourist. It’s one of the best places in the world to recharge my energies. It called Punta Galera, an inspiring hidden beach that was the scenario for meditation and beach parties in the '70. I have a few of these magic places close to my house. But also love Amsterdam and Berlin to be “another one”. New design and fashion trends are updated there every five minutes. 

Julz: Where do you take inspiration from?

Pablo: My influences are modern architects such as Mies van der Rohe, Louis Kahn and Richard Neutra. I am also very interested in the local architecture like the famous white churches which are a permanent inspiration in my designs.

Julz: We are living in an age where our communication is mostly digital – how do you deal with this ?

Pablo: The new technologies give my design studio the possibility to reach out any little corner and client around the globe, but communication is still fifty percent and it only works for me if I can make it real. 

Julz: What makes you happy and do you have a life motto??

Pablo: I don't have a motto, but spirituality is a must- have for a free minded person like me. I don't look for happiness, but I want be close to my inner peace, which makes me feel genuine in a world where most people are looking for standardized ways of life.

Julz: Which situation stamped you mostly in life?

Pablo: I couldn't say that a specific situation stamped me, more a time span. My teenage days when I decided to become an architect. Now, sometimes I still want to come back to those fresh days when my ideas came out without any prejudice.
