Furniture design, interior design, graphic design, landscaping, painting, sculpture, illustration, web design, multimedia and animation are all the subject of his professional activity. In his own words "My specialty is being creative, innovative, making language goes as far as possible, trying to develop codes, signs and graphic messages. Bringing them up to date. Listening, absorbing, observing, expressing what society is breathing in images, what we believe, what makes us feel emotions and the ideas that are changing. For this I have used no system, language or discipline that I have had within my reach."Together with the team of Estudio Mariscal, which he founded in 1989, in recent years, and among many other things, what has been done by the interior design and graphics of the H&M store in Barcelona, the collection for the Design One contract, the 11th floor of the Puerta hotel América de Madrid for the Silken Hotels group, the graphic image of the 32nd edition of the Copa América, the image and communication for Camper for children, the exhibition of his work Mariscal Drawing Life at the Design Museum in London, the pergola esc Ultorical for the Río Hortega Hospital in Valladolid, two monographic publications: Mariscal Drawing Life Sketches, and the dissemination of the new law on children of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the retrospective exhibition Mariscal in La Pedrera.
