Brenda G. González Guzmán, M.Sc.
Architect & Design Researcher
Hola, I am the Mexican part of the company. My formation as an architect allows me to be well aware of the environment and space where a project is being developed. This way our projects and products are created to work as a whole within their surroundings. As a design researcher, I help companies and institutions to reach their potential through design strategies like user experience (UX), innovation, design thinking, circular design, etc.

Industrial Designer
Hallo, I am the German part of nopal design and the industrial designer of the team. I am passionate about sustainability in the design field. My knowledge in digitalization and visualization allows me to bring projects to life even before being constructed. At the company, my role is to invent and innovate in our products and services. Also, I enjoy taking the challenge to find the best solution considering all aspects around a project like the user needs, material efficiency, economic factors, and ecology.
What We Do
We are a creative company that stands for the sustainable practice of design. This company started with the idea of combining two creative cultures: from Germany and Mexico. This way nopal design was born, to create high-quality design products that are handmade by Mexican artisans.
The concept behind each of our products is to be sustainable, that means that our products are socially responsible, ecological, and profitable. We value our partnership with the artisans and their work to deliver the highest quality on our products and services.
