The Old Grandma — Creative Studio since 1943

The studio

A story made by hand.

Small by design and open to the world by nature. Strategy, direction and motion from one point of view.

The origin of the name

It started with her.

I was raised by my grandmother. From her I inherited a way of seeing and working: make things with your hands, ask before accepting, and never be impressed by something that only looks good. She was born in 1943. That year ended up giving the brand its name, and her attitude became part of everything we do. That is where The Old Grandma comes from. That is where it all comes from.

A life between places

Canarian by origin. International by choice.

Travel changed the way he works: listen before speaking, adapt without disappearing, and find a different language for every brand.

The maker

It all crosses my desk.

I remain involved in every project: asking questions, defining the visual world, directing the motion and assembling the exact team the idea needs. I have collaborated with brands such as Cabify and teams across countries, always without imposing a house style.

The work speaks

There is no house style. There is a right answer for every brand.

How we work

01

Craft first

Details are the work. We sweat the kerning, the timing and the tenth revision.

02

Straight talk

No jargon, no theatre. Clear thinking, honest feedback, on time.

03

Before the brief

We start where others stop — at the question you haven’t asked yet.

04

Built to last

Systems and stories designed to grow with you, not expire on you.
