Who it’s for
Entrepreneurs with vision
Visionary entrepreneurs and SMEs developing physical products with built-in technology.
[ Technical product direction ]
From idea to prototype, from prototype to product
Industrial design, engineering and rapid prototyping. All under a single direction, with artificial intelligence built into every phase.
[ 01 · What we do ]
Designing products that have to work in the real world
Many entrepreneurs have a clear vision for their project but lack the technical team to turn it into a product. Silex Design Studio takes on the technical and design direction of the entire product, from the first concept to a functional prototype ready for industrialization.
What’s included
From concept to functional prototype
Research, industrial design, detailed engineering and rapid prototyping.
Why Silex
Unified design
Aesthetics and technical feasibility move forward together from the very first line.
[ 02 · Methodology and tech stack ]
A phased process, accelerated with intelligence at every step.
AI built into the whole process makes it possible to research faster, explore more concepts and reach more complete solutions before committing to manufacturing.

Javier López del Pueyo
Engineer and Industrial Designer | Founder of Silex Design Studio
Industrial engineer specializing in physical product design and rapid prototyping, with a strong track record in high-tech and medical innovation. My experience includes working with the European Space Agency (ESA) on satellite projects, technical consulting at CEIT-IK4 and developing, with Cyber Surgery, the first Spanish surgical robot to reach the market.
Through Silex Design Studio, I put this experience at the service of entrepreneurial projects that need comprehensive technical direction to turn complex ideas into real products.
