Tresserra Collection: design made in Catalonia
His name is Jaime Tresserra (as authentic as it comes) and for over 20 years his name has been connected with the revival of Iberian designs, that represents an uncompromising art, sober and ultra-sophisticated at the same time. What makes this Catalan so extraordinary?
An atypical interior designer
He refuses to bow to industrial and economic dictates and is surfing with flying colours, on the edge of trends, excelling at the art of attracting a very erudite and cosmopolitan clientele: Jaime Tresserra has continued, ever since his smashing entry into the elite world of interior design with the fantastic Carpett Secreter, to impose his unique style from Barcelona, all the way to South America, from Los Angeles to Saint-Tropez. Offices, private residences or atypical building sites, the Catalan, who has already appeared several times in movies (with Tim Burton, Almodovar, Louis Malle, etc.), continues to pursue his passion of long date now, for noble woods essence, for Vaquetilla ornamental hinges or leathers, in an exhilarating personal collection that has already become cult: the Tresserra Collection.
From museum to dining room
Hamburg, New York, Amsterdam, Berlin, Tokyo : just as all of the most avant-garde museums and galleries are snatching up his creations, ranking Jaime Tresserra as number one inSpanish creativity, Tresserra is also imposing his signature on furniture and accessories. Included in the creation range that has already become a great classic, is the Haiku chaise longue with its minimalist synthesis of Oriental philosophy coupled with ingenious technological features, visible and brilliant at the same time. The Maletero ragman, is the pure figment of the imagination of the well-cultured man of today, while accessories such as a chess set and Backgammon catch our eye due to their Mediterranean masculinity. A long lasting and ambitious art. No doubt about it, we really like that !
