THE INSPIRATION
THE SKETCH
THE PROCESS
Alvaro Picardo's Rose Cumming collaboration is available exclusively through:
Born in Barcelona, Alvaro has always loved working with simple materials by transforming them into something beautiful.
After arriving in London in 1993, he dove headfirst into the city’s rich visual culture, visiting museums, galleries, and auction houses whenever he could.
This strengthened his eclectic taste which is influenced by brutalism, modern architecture, abstract and Modern British Art, and the world of interior design.
