Sempere#Poli Design

The collaboration between the young Spanish designer and the experience of Prof. Franco Poli gives birth to a new creative reality: Sempere# Poli Design.

Beatriz Sempere is an Industrial Designer born in Valencia in 1975. She developed her expertise by attending art galleries and companies which harmonize her artistic personality and make her more sensitive towards a romantic line and, at the same time, both modern and balanced. A choice of basic materials and the intuition of colors often used to revive vintage forms is fundamental. Beatriz defines design as expression, visual communication, as an aesthetic language for the creation of spaces in which mankind always takes the leading role. Therefore, her creations are additions that contribute to the formation of a balanced and comfortable atmosphere, causing the coexistence between old and new, past and future, through a succession of shapes and meanings. Her ultimate objective is to excite and tries to succeed by continually designing seemingly diverse objects, although combined by their own nature and adapted to careful and functional technology. Beatriz addresses to a heterogeneous public still maintaining a design of austerity.
