Super original shirts inspired by Barcelona, candles with the smell of potato omelette, ‘pa amb tomáquet’ or stuffed olives. Anti-theft bags designed in Barcelona by Urbanita. Modernist-inspired hydraulic tiles typical of the stately flats of Barcelona’s Eixample for decorative use, or for coasters or to serve tapas.
