Leading Kutarq studio, architect and designer Jordi López Aguiló designs lighting, objects and furniture with a unique and pragmatic perspective. Each project involves a methodical process that emphasizes both material and research. With the constant challenge of revealing the "soul" behind his objects, he offers their users not just an aesthetic piece but rather a design with personality and a life of its own. After spending time abroad collaborating with prestigious architecture and design firms in Paris and Copenhagen, he finished his master in Barcelona and decided to finally settle down in his home town Valencia where he's been leading his own studio since 2012. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at Paris Design Week, Milan Design Week, Frankfurt Light & Building and the Stockholm Furniture Fair.

Born in Russia (Donskoje) `83, moved to Germany `90. I was studying architecture at the University for Applied Science in Koblenz. After the diploma I went to Moscow to work as an architect for Sergei Tchoban. Back from Moscow I made my M.A. at Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main. One of my most emotional periods in my life because of the people and the discussion about architecture. At the moment I am working for Schneider+Schumacher architects in Frankfurt am Main. Currently I don`t have really a home town, I am spending time between many cities. For the moment I like this situation to be more independent.

Born and educated in Spain, he furthered his studies in Germany at the TFH Berlin. Trained as and having practiced both as an architect and landscape architect, He is especially competent at overseeing large-scale architectural projects, achieving a balance between function and context, design and ecology.
