Working in retail to pay the rent and at Spanish brands for fun — Ignacio specializes in fashion design, researching the archetypal garments of the men's wear and applying them to a global wardrobe.
Researching how to give it new meanings through pattern or materials without losing its essence — Draining inspiration from both work and social uniformity and urban aesthetic repetition patterns.

At the same time as working on these projects, it was combined with work in retail. After working from a modest scale to the ultra-luxury, a first-hand experience has been gained of how purchasing patterns work and how the sales ceremony regarding clothing is generated. This gives a better perspective, giving a consumer awareness of real clothing when designing.
Ignacio’s work appeared in: Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Vanity Fair, RTVE and El País.
