Sportivo – Store Interior (Madrid)


I assisted Mayize in the development of Sportivo’s new store on Calle del Limón, helping represent the store’s vision throughout the process while working as a buyer. The project preserves the character of a 1907 palace — original terrazzo floors, iron columns, and aged surfaces treated almost as an archaeological layer. Updated lighting and suspended tempered-glass elements introduce a contemporary clarity, creating a space where material history and refined retail design meet.






Saucony – “The Maze” (Paris)


I collaborated with LOOP Studio to design, light, and build the set for Saucony’s The Maze — a high-energy underground relay race held in a multi-storey car park in Paris. The installation served as both arena and backdrop for 13 global running crews competing during the launch of Saucony’s Endorphin Elite 2. Through structural design, dynamic lighting, and spatial choreography, we translated the spirit of speed, endurance, and community into a raw, immersive environment.


RÉMY & ROMAN – Converse Shoe Launch (Paris)


I collaborated on the visual production and installation for Converse’s launch event with Rémy & Roman, helping bring their vision to life in space. The concept was to recreate the childhood bedroom they grew up in, filled with memories from their skateboarding tours and moments that inspired the sneaker they designed. I assisted in shaping the room, arranging objects, and creating an atmosphere that felt personal, nostalgic, and true to their story, turning the exhibition into an immersive experience for visitors.






Malick Bodian – “Voyage Temporel” (Paris)


I created the installation for Malick Bodian’s Voyage Temporel exhibition, working with the gallery space to translate the artist’s vision into a tangible environment. The installation incorporated sculptural props and layered materials that interacted with the architecture of the venue, emphasizing movement, light, and temporal shifts. The resulting space invited visitors to engage with the artwork in an immersive and contemplative way.
