A cabinetmaker by training and a self-taught designer, I have been working for over 13 years between workshops and design offices, with a progressive specialization in the design of custom furniture and technical preparation for manufacturing.

My background has led me to work in both manufacturing and design, allowing me to develop a concrete understanding of workshop constraints, assemblies, hardware, fits and tolerances, as well as CNC manufacturing logic.

I have notably participated in the design of furniture for renowned interior designers such as Christian Liaigre and Bruno Moinard, as well as for prestigious houses like Yves Saint Laurent, Hermès, and Clé de Peau.

This dual experience in the workshop and design office allows me today to approach each project with a technical, aesthetic, and realistic vision: designing furniture is not just about drawing it, but about considering its manufacturing, assembly, structural coherence, and durability.

I intervene in particular on:

• 3D design and modeling of custom furniture and objects

• Production of technical drawings and validation files

• Preparation of files for manufacturing (CNC, cutting, machining)

• Feasibility studies and technical optimization of projects

• Development of structural principles adapted to workshop constraints

Work method:

• Analysis of needs and understanding of project intent

• Technical study and framing exchanges if necessary

• Design and development of the project

• Clear presentation of structural principles and validation

• Adjustments if needed before finalization

My goal is simple: to transform an intention or a sketch into a technically coherent, aesthetic, and truly manufacturable project.
