About il·lacions gallery x Inspired in Barcelona

Expertise/ Contemporary collectible design.

The il·lacions design gallery (2011) is the first gallery in Barcelona dedicated exclusively to 21st century local design. Its purpose is to create value and bring visibility to the more than 70 creators with whom it collaborates, showing their furniture and objects –unique pieces or limited series– in temporary exhibitions, international fairs and in its permanent collection. Il·lacions also produces projects linked to design and creativity, contributing all its collective intelligence to private projects and spin-offs. The gallery’s other activities include exhibition curation, collection consultancy, editing and production of furniture and objects, R&D, book publishing and design residencies. It was recently awarded the FAD 2023 AWARD “for blurring the border between art and design and for representing the most artistic side of all the professions of contemporary design, architecture and craftsmanship”.
