About Guillaume

- Industrial designer since 2006 (Ex Puma, Lacoste, Decathlon)
- Based in Nantes as a consultant since 2020
- I have worked on all categories within the different brands I've been associated with (formal, casual, sportswear, and sport performance) for men, women, and children's markets.
- Specialized in eco-design for 5 years: first as Eco-shoe leader at Decathlon, then by advising my various clients since 2020 as a consultant.

My services are varied:
- Design of the upper, the sole, or a complete project.
- Only the research/drawing phase or up to production.
- I work very regularly with engineers, developers, and R&D departments associated with the project.
- I travel to factories (mainly in France and Portugal) for important project milestones.
- I also lead workshops for brands on specific topics (Materials, eco-design, processes, Made in France challenges) using my experience and design tools.
- I can open doors for you to one of the best showrooms for eco-designed materials in France (3000 references) specializing in footwear.
