Pablo Designs | Virtual Fellowship

Pablo Pardo, Creative Director and Founder, Pablo Designs, provides a view into the studio which started with a single design, bringing insight into the creative process, design collaborations, and how Pablo Designs manages the challenges of the production process from concept to finished goods. Pablo touches on the studio's devotion to human-centered design which elevates our experience with light.

The times are presenting great challenges for all of humanity, but also great opportunities for students of the world to take leadership roles to help make this world a better place for all. The fellowship serves as an excellent source for further education and inspiration to that end.

Pablo Pardo

Venezuelan-born industrial designer Pablo Pardo has defined his career by creating contemporary, sparse, utilitarian lighting that fosters harmonious relationships between people and their environments. In doing so, he has forged a method of design that strives to uncover the essence of an idea while always championing the user experience. Concepts laid bare, his objects speak a universal language. Since establishing Pablo Designs in San Francisco in 1993, Pardo’s studio has gained international recognition for its innovative lighting and home furnishings.
