Javier Mariscal (Valencia 1950) is a Spanish designer whose activity is linked to a wide range of disciplines within design. He was born into a large family in the darkest days of the Spanish post-war era. The Mediterranean, the lagoon, the light, the friendships, the bars, the streets and the joy of living have irrevocably marked his professional and personal career. In 1979 he designed the Bar Cel Ona logo, a job that brought him popularity. The following year, he opened in Valencia the first bar signed by Mariscal, along with Fernando Salas, the Dúplex, for which he designed one of his most famous pieces, the Dúplex stool, a true icon of the eighties. In 1989 Cobi was chosen as the mascot for the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games. The mascot was welcomed with great controversy due to its disruptive image, although time proved its creator right and now Cobi is recognized as the most profitable in the history of the modern Games.
