Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Lou
I have been evolving for several years in the luxury universe as a designer, with a particular sensitivity for artisanal crafts and innovation.
Trained in the challenges of design and passionate about craftsmanship, I let myself be guided by what makes me vibrate: creating, imagining, experimenting, hybridizing materials, techniques, and know-how.
I first discovered leather goods and designed unique pieces for the Chanel house. I emerged transformed, now passionate about the sociological dynamics of luxury and customer experience.
My journey then took me to Amsterdam, where the fascinating world of jewelry appeared to me as a revelation, alongside Bibi Van Der Velden and her extraordinary creations, inspired by the living, blending rare materials and innovative techniques.
I now assist my clients in creating collections and custom-made jewelry pieces, bringing their stories to life.
Self-taught designer-artisan, I constantly continue to expand my skills, discovering new know-how and new mediums, such as gouache, which I particularly appreciate for translating my ideas with delicacy and emotion.
I would be delighted to assist you with your project and to use my various skills to achieve it! What I enjoy most is discussing and creating together: so when do we start?✨
