I am Alba, designer from Northern Spain based in London.

​

WHAT DO I DO
I'm a product and experience designer who specialises in innovation strategy and new product development.
 
I bring products and experiences from simple ideas to market-proved concepts.
By prototyping solutions based off insights and user needs, verifying them through research, and crafting visual stories to explain them both internally and externally. 
​
I have spent the last 8 years working in very different fields shaping new business cases with some talented multi-disciplinary teams of designers, engineers, business developers and marketeers. 
​
On the other side, I experiment with materials and visuals in a playful and explorative way.
