Q- First, can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
A – I was born in Paris and I studied at the public school for industrial design ‘’Les Ateliers”. In 2000, I opened my own studio.
Q-What is your favorite part of the design process?
A-When one is doing the technical drawings: it means that you know what you want do, so that the hardest part of the research is behind.
Q – Please tell us more about your art and design background, and what made you become an artist and designer?
A-I got into design because I was, and I am, interested in daily life, its objects, and furniture. As a child I used to like to build small objects, and I always took care of the objects that were around me. It because quite evident to become a designer.
After school, I worked as an intern or assistant of Georges Sowden, Marc Newson and Andrée Putman before opening my own studio.
Q-What was a movie or book that impressed you the most?
A-My favorite book is Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. One cries, one laughs, one is surprised. Nothing is caricature in this book. It is not a societal portrait—it is a portrait of characters who are not meant to show an example or give a message. It is what I want from books: to be taken away, transported.
I’m fond of the movie Les parapluies de Cherbourg. To me is many things at once, a romance, a comedy, a drama; it is both audible and visual delight. One has to be clearly bold to make and produce such an audacious movie.
