The workshop
I’ve been based in Paris for some fifteen years, in the historic cabinetmaking district of Faubourg Saint Antoine.
Above all, I’m passionate about cabinetmaking. I like to combine creativity and know-how to design and create contemporary furniture, objects and interior fittings.
Between an artistic approach and a practice of design methodologies with that of interior architecture, I’m constantly on the lookout for “Balance” and “Beauty” in all its forms.
Custom furniture and fittings
Together with my fellow cabinetmakers, I create all types of custom furniture and fittings. We can work anywhere in France, as well as abroad.
A cabinetmaker by trade, but also a designer and interior architect by training, we are used to working on projects for private individuals, interior designers, artists, brands and industry.
Passionate about drawing, proportions and details, I often accompany my customers in the design and conception of their projects. From 3d with rendering, through mock-ups, drawings and CAD plans, we offer manufacturing drawings and plans adapted to the context and universe of the project.
Furniture design
I design and create furniture creations that I present and sell via the online gallery of this website.
These pieces can be made to measure, with the dimensions and materials of your choice.
Between an artistic and a technical approach, I like to search for constructive principles, work on vibrating surfaces and use new types of wood.
These periods of research and exploration are above all a deep desire to create, to seek, to innovate, sometimes with the joy of finding a principle, an idea, a form that makes me tick.
Prototyping and consulting
We’ve been creating prototypes and concepts for brands for over a decade.
We provide advice and expertise upstream of projects, setting up operating procedures for realization.
This enables us to design projects in the best possible way, so as to obtain a quality product well adapted to the project’s specifications.
Depending on the nature of the project, I have the ability to create teams with complementary skills and know-how.
