Tired of design that looks clever but feels kind of hollow? Same.
Hi, I’m Pol
designer from Barcelona based in London. I work at Established & Sons as Creative Lead, where I’m helping guide the brand into its new chapter: a bit less nostalgia, more grounded experimentation, more stuff that matters.
I studied design at Kingston School of Art with a ‘get-your-hands-dirty’ approach, then a masters in History of Design at Oxford with an ‘ask-more-questions’ attitude; I care as much about why things exist as how they’re made. I’ve also written about sustainability and design culture, because I don’t believe in making things without thinking about their consequences — or their afterlives.
I have taught design communication and run ceramic projects at Kingston School of Art. These days I mostly just try to communicate design in ways that make people stop and think — or at least not scroll past.
If you're working on something between the poetic and the practical, I'm probably interested - say Hi.
