With a restless personality and a multidisciplinary career, Héctor Cardell, knows the stage and above all the backstage of the Ibizan night scene in a very personal way. In 1985, he decided to leave the peninsula and his native Alicante to fully participate in the international vanity zoo that surrounded the nightlife of Ibiza, via his skills for set-design and decoration, and thus be linked to it for most of his professional career.
As part of the interior design and visual teams of clubs like Ku, (currently Privilege) Héctor disembarked at Pachá— where he would establish himself for more than twenty years— decorating an Ibiza where a miscellaneous group of national and international characters walked around, bearing little resemblance to the current island, both in its periodicities and ways of working, as well as in its spirit. In Héctor's own words when recalling that time: "the setting came naturally, it was part of a group work using materials made entirely by ourselves. The clubs had ambience yet the people set the ambience themselves: they entered the game because the star was not the DJ in question, it was the public." Héctor is therefore an exceptional witness of a club scene that is more spontaneous, fresh, less technical and fundamentally guided by a common love of freedom of expression.
