“The Ex-Designer Project Bar falls within a project model that combines the three fields of my work: these are interior design, industrial design, and food design, grouped based on the application of criteria derived from technological advancements, which modify our daily lives and lifestyle”. Martí Guixé
In 2015, Martí Guixé, in collaboration with architect Pau Badia, opened the Ex-Designer Project Bar in Barcelona, the first bar built entirely with the use of 3D printers.
Documented from the very beginning with photographs by Inga Knölke, the book tells the story of a visionary project, the adventures of the space as a bar, the 3D construction piece by piece of glasses, stools, counters, the convoluted origin of the name and its transformation into an "object" at an exhibition at the DHub in Barcelona.
Closed due to covid in 2020, the bar underwent an orderly process of 'deconstruction' in order to preserve it as a project. The self-supporting structure, the design idea and the elements that configure it can be used in other ways and for other places. An opportunity to see the everyday from another perspective and a process always in progress, in the style to which 'former designer' Guixé has accustomed us.
