Together with my sisters, we envisioned the revolution of table linen: Prado y Barrio is an exclusive brand that combines bold design, materials of the highest quality, and the affection that craftsmanship entails. Our production line is sustainable, ethical, and local.
We built a strong brand for digital and physical products, creating a coherent visual language for the table linen, packaging, website, and social media presence. In summary: building a Prado y Barrio universe.

Set up a crowdfunding campaign, leading production and manufacturing suppliers.
