For the past 13 years in São Paulo, he has led a practice under his own name that moves fluidly between architecture, interior design, and furniture. Prior to establishing his studio, he studied Design and Humanities — including philosophy, literature, and art history — at Pompeu Fabra University in his hometown of Barcelona.

His work spans interior projects, one-off pieces, and limited-edition design series, motivated by a direct and intense relationship with nature. Drawing on his family background, he is a great-nephew of the Catalan architect Josep Lluís Sert — known for designing the iconic Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona, among other significant works. Lucas was born in 1984, one year after Sert’s death. “His constructivist techniques are a great source of learning for me,” he reflects. When Lucas arrived in São Paulo, the discovery of Italo-Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi’s work made a significant impact on him. He recalls, “I was very young, and my Mediterranean heritage connected deeply with Brazilian modernist architecture.”
