Rovalo commented: "Barcelona is an open, cosmopolitan city, a brilliant urban space, with a strong personality and an international reputation.
"At the forefront of both economic transformation and cultural change Barcelona is playing an active role in Spain's future and Research Studios will also be playing an active role in that change process.
"Opening this studio enables us to push the boundaries of communication with groundbreaking experimental projects and developing award-winning visual languages.
"Design is my way to withstand uniformity and the commonplace.

Neville Brody, founder of Research Studios, said: "It makes sense that Pablo, as one of the most talented graphic artists and typographers currently working in the industry worldwide, should be heading up Research Studios Barcelona.
"We have always sought out the very best design practitioners and allowed them to engage with interesting and challenging projects for a roster of diverse brands.
"Barcelona will run on the same principle shared by the Research Studios network, open collaboration between offices and designers bringing their own personal background and their cultural surround to bear on projects to create groundbreaking design solutions".
