Jaime Hayon was born in Madrid in 1974. As a teenager, he became fascinated by the subculture of skate and graffiti art and studied industrial design in Spain and France. He later moved to Italy to continue his training at the Fabrica research center, founded by Benetton in Treviso, where he would lead the design department until 2003. In 2000, he founded his own studio and, after three years, dedicated himself exclusively to his projects, becoming one of the most renowned and sought-after designers and artists worldwide. His broad clientele encompasses diverse functions and mediums, including furniture for Cassina, Fritz Hansen, & Tradition, and Magis; lighting fixtures for Parachilna, Metalarte, and Swarovski; and high-end objects for Bisazza, Lladró, and Baccarat. He has also designed interiors for major hotels, restaurants, museums, and retail spaces worldwide.

His artistic vision was first showcased in the installations "Mediterranean Digital Baroque" and "Mon Cirque". These collections placed Jaime Hayon at the forefront of a new wave, blurring the lines between art, decoration, and design, and representing the rebirth of exquisitely crafted objects within the context of contemporary design culture. Jaime Hayon further defined his vision in subsequent solo exhibitions and exhibitions at major art and design galleries and fairs worldwide.
