• Juan Ignacio MICHEL is not just a designer; he is an architect of emotions and a storyteller through space and form. From crafting the iconic Planetario in Guadalajara, Jalisco, to curating exclusive pieces for XIXO, MICHEL’s work transcends functionality, embodying art, culture, and innovation.

    With a career spanning decades, MICHEL has earned a reputation as a leader in contemporary design, seamlessly blending traditional Mexican craftsmanship with cutting-edge techniques. His creations are not just objects; they are experiences, crafted to inspire and elevate the spaces they inhabit.

"Design is more than creating beautiful things—it’s about crafting meaning," MICHEL shares. "Whether it’s the architecture of the Planetario or a single piece of furniture, my goal is to reflect the soul of the materials and the story of those who will live with them."

  • At XIXO, MICHEL serves as the creative force behind every collection, ensuring each piece meets his exacting standards of elegance, exclusivity, and personality. His vision is clear: to offer clients not just furniture, but a connection to the artistry and traditions that define Mexico’s rich cultural heritage.

"For me, design is deeply personal. It’s the bridge between who we are and the spaces we create to express ourselves," MICHEL adds. "At XIXO, every piece is a promise of individuality, timelessness, and quality."
