Jaume Ramírez

Jaume Ramirez is a Spanish designer, born in Olot in 1973. He studied Design at Universitat Politecnica de Girona before later relocating to Basque Country. In 2019 he founded his own Barcelona-based design studio. Ramirez was awarded the Delta de Oro and the Red Dot for his very first design; the Delica Tray.

The Jaume Ramírez studio designs furniture, lamps and accessories. They have worked with various brands including Norman Copenhagen, Marset, Palmadera, Escofet and M114. In describing their work they utilise a phrase that Peter Brook followed; they want to combine the closeness of reality and the distance of myth. Because if there is no closeness you aren’t moved, and if there is no distance you aren’t amazed. They always want to highlight the relationship with the human condition, in their designs the direct relationship between the object and the person is always very important.

"A lamp emphasizes the human condition. People can choose a lamp for its function only, but staging is essential to see how it can fit. The moment you think about placing and fitting, is when the possibilities can expand and vary. Once you realize that, the mental conditions come into account." - Jaume Ramirez
