Alexa Trilla,
architect, food designer and chef.
A multidisciplinary creative
working across concept,
design and experience.
This combination shapes the way I think and create, with curiosity, a sensitivity to space, materials and ingredients, an instinct for the sensory, and a conscious approach to resources and waste.
My path has taken me from architecture and design to professional kitchens, food design studios and creative collaborations across Europe and Asia.
I founded ARCHICOOKTURE, a creative practice born from the intersection of architecture and gastronomy.
Based between
Lleida, Barcelona and Istanbul,
working internationally.
HOW I WORK
My work moves naturally between disciplines, scales and formats.
I enjoy finding unexpected connections between ideas, spaces, materials, images and food, and turning them into something tangible.
Each project begins with curiosity and observation. From the initial concept to the final detail, I look for a coherent narrative and a strong visual and sensory identity, always shaped by its context and the people who will experience it.
ARCHITECTURE & SPACE
Spatial thinking, materials and attention to detail form the foundation of the way I approach ideas and experiences.
A MULTIDISCIPLINARY BACKGROUND
Culinary training and professional experience have shaped my understanding of food, culture and the sensory dimension of design.
GASTRONOMY
IMAGE & FOOD DESIGN
Food design, styling and visual direction allow me to translate ideas into images, objects and narratives with a strong aesthetic identity.
CONCEPT & EXPERIENCE
From an initial idea to the final experience, I connect concept, storytelling, space and detail to create projects that engage people and leave an impression.
I bring ideas to life through space, image and storytelling, shaping experiences to be seen, felt, tasted and remembered.
