Norman Vilalta Named to the Coldwell 100
Norman Vilalta has been named one of the Coldwell 100 Leaders of the Ultra Luxury Galaxy in the premier issue of COLDWELL, a new publication dedicated to the individuals shaping the future of global luxury across disciplines including fashion, design, culture, travel, and craft.
Featured as number 17 on the list, Vilalta was recognized for his mastery of bespoke shoemaking and his continued exploration of how traditional craftsmanship can evolve within a modern luxury landscape.
Trained in Florence and now based in Barcelona, he has spent decades refining a design language that bridges classical technique with contemporary expression.
The Coldwell 100 highlights figures whose work defines the highest levels of their respective fields, placing artisans alongside leaders in architecture, gastronomy, art, and innovation. Vilalta’s inclusion underscores the role of independent makers in shaping the future of luxury through originality, precision, and depth of craft.
Every pair produced in the Norman Vilalta workshop reflects this philosophy, from the earliest stages of design and patternmaking to the final hand finishing. The recognition affirms a vision that sees luxury not as excess, but as intention, patience, and the pursuit of something truly personal.
We are honored by the inclusion and grateful to the clients and collectors around the world who continue to support the work of our team in Barcelona.
