Chrome, briques, pin
2024


The exhibition CHROME, BRIQUES, PIN (i.e Chrome, bricks, pine) is presenting a collection of products initiated at the Villa Albertine during a research based project in New York. Mirrors, containers and stepladders have been designed in dialogue with French craftsmen and craftswomen. The experimental approach of these collaborations put into light raw materials. Steel, terracotta brick and pine that are usually encountered in the automotive and building industry have been revisited and twisted into domestic products for everyday life.

Reflag
2024

At the occasion of Designer's Days held in Paris every year, we designed 16 flag-like objects made from upcycled textiles. Their designs have been informed by the material available and their afterlife we sought to anticipate.

These objects have been installed in the front windows of participating showrooms in order to provide a physical bridge between the street, the wind and the visitors.

5pm
2024

5pm is a furniture collection designed for Aubier studio, a manufacturing workshop committed to craft wooden object locally and virtuously. The collection has been thought in dialogue with Aubier's know-how after visiting the forests and sawmills around the workshop.
The advised time to use the lounge chair and armchair is 5pm, the right time to enjoy a cup of tea and wait quietly for the aperitivo.
