Hiroshi Tsunoda is a Japanese designer who has called Barcelona home since 2000. With a fascination for American culture—particularly cinema and basketball—he pursued his studies at the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design. This experience honed his talent, technique, and distinctive design identity, rooted in formal simplicity and characterized by strong geometric elements that harmonize form, function, and material.

Tsunoda finds inspiration in his surroundings, addressing the small challenges of daily life while exploring new conceptual and formal territories. In 2005, he founded his design studio in Barcelona, focusing on innovative solutions with a multicultural perspective. That same year, he launched DesignCode, a product editorial company that champions accessible and sensational design. Since then, Tsunoda’s studio has collaborated with numerous national and international companies across diverse industries.

Tsunoda’s work has been exhibited globally, including in London, Milan, Paris, Frankfurt, Hangzhou, and Moscow. He has contributed to design discourse through talks and workshops at prestigious events such as Design-Act in Moscow, the Hangzhou International Design Festival in China, and Creative Talks by Lladró in Valencia. His thought leadership extends to educational initiatives, including The Creative Journeys at the Apple Store in Barcelona.
