Culture of Spain

Paintings – see an example above of one of Spain's best known artist since the 20th century - Pablo Picasso, who is known for his abstract sculptures, drawings, graphics, and ceramics in addition to his paintings.

There is a diverse and rich architecture. See an example above of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, built on the Romanesque period. It’s construction began in 1075.

Diverse and spectacular geography – see an example above of one of Menorca bays.

Simple and delightful Spanish cuisine – see above an example of tapas. Small dishes to share.


Habitat from Spain

3 main characteristics differentiate the Spanish habitat industry 1.  VARIETY AND RICHNESS: classical, modern,

high-end, traditional, functional styles define this industry in Spain.

2.  PASSION AND CREATIVITY: emotion, dynamism are key elements of the creation

3.  CUSTOMIZATION: Spain is a diverse country, rich in personalities, styles. Spain is betting on personalization.

Spain is ranked within the top 10 European furniture exporters; an increase of +5.5%, amounting to 1,692 million euros (end of FY14)
