Born in 1944 in Barcelona, Santiago Roqueta studied at the city s Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura (ETSAB). He soon went into industrial design, founding the first Barcelona design editing house, Snark Design, in 1969. The idea was to distribute classic pieces, publishing works by Gerrit Rietveld, Giacomo Balla and Salvador Dalí, incorporating his own designs in the years that followed. In 1972 BD Ediciones de Diseño published a design by Santiago Roqueta which signified his recognition in the world of industrial design.

Over the course of his career, Santiago Roqueta received several awards, including the FAD award for the interior design of the Snooker Club in 1985 or the Silver Delta in the same year, for his Vallvidrera armchair in collaboration with Carles Riart. Many of his designs are exhibited around the world, from the Museum of Modern Art in New York to the National Art Museum of Catalonia.

Persistent and accommodating, Santiago Roqueta embodies the figure of the teacher, the mentor, and the promoter, leaving his indelible imprint on Spanish design.
