This fun comedy portrays the history of a couple over time, as well as asking why is it so difficult to say “I love you” to a beloved person. Kiti Manver (Lola) and Jorge Roelas (Víctor) are a married couple that decide to separate after years of happiness and three children together. From that moment, their roads continue to cross during all of a decade, but only in those special occasions where neither can escape from the other. Little by little, they will realize that maybe they were mistaken in breaking up their relationship. How can they fix it now?

DI Projects introduces us to a world of Interior Design through a sample intended to deepen the constant aesthetic search that floods our daily universe and results in a tireless work that connects technological innovation and beauty, by involving one artistic vision to the last detail of our micro worlds: the home, the office, the restaurant, the library… in our present society.

Furniture and Interior Design, that looks for an equilibrium of the individual with the space around and displays its creative and magical aura,  has the ability to transform an empty space into a livable place full of culture.

DI Projects reinvented for us the Contemporánea RC (in the
Diocesan Museum of Regina Coeli).
