They are coming from industrial design, product design, interior design training. They worked for celebrities in the industry and finally, they launched there own business and succeed. On this article, I invite you to discover those talents that will represent french design<\/strong><\/em><\/a> internationally soon.<\/p>\n

Margaux Keller<\/h3>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

It is during one of our trip to the South of France that we discovered Margaux Keller, a young designer from Marseille. Her universe is in appearance powdered, sweet and delicate. However, if we look at the details, suddenly, something extraordinary crazy crop up! Margaux Keller is designing interiors, but not only, but she is also creating pieces. The lines are minimalistic, but the pieces are visually extremely detailed. There is the aesthetic, the usefulness and the concept. Margaux is among this new generation of designers that explore her art and try to create an emotion for the spectator. Let\u2019s take a look at her work :<\/p>\n

Her work for the boutique of the perfumer Gell\u00e9 Fr\u00e8res, on which one she tried to recreate a French boudoir for the ladies. The company founded in 1826, was originally the official perfumer of the French queens among who Queen Marie Antoinette.<\/p>\n

The Eileen Console was created for the Parisian\u00a0gallery \u201cEn attendant les barbares\u201d\u00a0and was inspired by the Irish\u00a0designer Eileen Gray. Here is an example of the product design skills of Margaux Keller.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

But Margaux Keller isn\u2019t working exclusively with pink colours. You have here an example of her work for the hairdresser from Marseille Pascal Lancien.<\/p>\n

Nathana\u00ebl D\u00e9sormeaux & Damien Carrette<\/h3>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

With D\u00e9sormeaux and Carrette, we go to another\u00a0universe. The style is much more industrial and the objective is to create a product that can be mass-produced. The forms are flexible and sober, while the colours are acidulous and flashy.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

The two young designers met in their first year of Product Design school in Lyon in\u00a02006. After a master at the Strate College of Paris and an international experience in London on the studio of Benjamin Hubert, they finally open their studio in 2014. The industrial approach of Nathana\u00ebl and the creative approach of Damien are completely complimentary.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

The aim of their work isn\u2019t to create an emotion for the spectator but to bring aesthetic to the technicity.\u00a0 The first step of the work is to deconstruct the object and then, rebuilt it in an aesthetical\u00a0way. By this process, they can show off an incredible technicity mixed with a delicate and soft appearance.<\/p>\n

Dach&Z\u00e9phir<\/h3>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

Dimitri Zephir and Florian Dach meet each other at the Ecole Sup\u00e9rieure des Arts D\u00e9coratifs of Paris and decide to unite forces for their final year project. From that moment they will never get separated. The final year project is a success, they\u00a0obtain the congrats of their jury. \u201cLa figure de l\u2019autre\u201d is the story of the migrations waves that arrived\u00a0in France from the 20th century: Spanish, Portuguese, Algerian and Polish. Composed by an object, a writing edition and a map, their\u00a0work is a reflection about the history and the cultural heritage of the migrations in France.<\/p>\n\n \"BB_Book2020\"<\/a>\n

Ionna Vautrin<\/h3>\n

Ionna Vautrin goes out of the Ecole de Design Nantes Atlantique in 2002. To increase her skills she decides to go abroad and to work in Spain for Camper and to Italy with George J. Sowden. Coming back to France she is going to work successively for Ronan and\u00a0Erwan Bouroullec. 9 years later, with strong training, a built experience and the creation price of the city of Paris, she finally open her own studio.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

From the creation of her studio, Ionna Vautrin worked for well-known French brands like Dior, the SNCF, JCDecaux or Moustache, creating childish objects full of sweetness. The design is truly industrial but the lines are bent and the colours\u00a0are powerful. The design of the objects needs to be simple and evident but the forms need to be surprising and organic.<\/p>\n

Micka\u00ebl Koska<\/h3>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

Before being a designer, Koska is an artist. Coming from a family which own a renovation company, Koska will develop an avant-garde spirit and decide to enter the prestigious school Boule in Paris in 2011 to follow a cabinetmaker training. Koska like the pureness of the materials, he is a follower of the waste recycling and transforms unused objects into design objects. I let you take a look at some of his creations:<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

The Coco lighting is in a way, the toy of Koska. He invented it and since, don\u2019t stop to re-imagine its design, its colours or its size. The first edition was in concrete, then he launched an oak version. He created a small version of the light but also an XXL format. Now he decided to paint it in plenty of colours, yellow, red or blue. This new collection is called Coco\u00a0M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

Koska isn\u2019t only an experimental designer, he is also experimenting with new concepts as the Junk Shop he opened in the ancient house for young people in Bell\u00eame. This place regroups a junk shop, a youth hostel for 12 people, a teahouse with a view of\u00a0the forest, an exhibition space and a reception space for weddings or events. If you have the pleasure to visit this amazing place, you will see an old piano from the 20\u2019s, a pinball machine, a pool table are again a collection of African masks.<\/p>\n

Doroth\u00e9e Meilichzon<\/h3>\n

As a kid, she wanted to become an inventor to create plenty of unusual objects. Seeing that this dream was impossible to realise, Doroth\u00e9e will decide to orientate her training on industrial design. This the period of the glorious hours of Philip Starck and its experimental creations. Following this training, Doroth\u00e9e will work as a global designer for an agency for 6 years. Finally, in 2009, aged 27, she opens her own agency CHZON. The adventure starts.<\/p>\n

Since the creation of her agency, Doroth\u00e9e\u2019s style is defined as vintage with n\u00e9o-rustic touch. She is mainly working in hotels, restaurants or bars. The last born is the Hotel des Grands Boulevards from the Experimental Group in Paris. The building created just before the French Revolution was entirely redecorated with a mix of styles and periods. Inspired by the origins of the building, she mixed noble materials and raw materials, interiors and exteriors. Let\u2019s take a look at her last work:<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a><\/p>\n

Here we can see the\u00a0Meilichzon\u2019s touch with this canopy bed. Pink or green, she introduced them in the rooms of the h\u00f4tel giving an amazing vintage style.<\/p>\n

The mix between the interior and the exterior is here obvious. The roof lets the light entering fully inside this vintage bar.<\/p>\n
