Description

Born in Paris, I lived in nine different cities before adulthood. This habit of traveling became my true creative engine: it gave me a taste for observing how spaces tell a story, and the desire to make it my profession.

Graduated in architecture from Syracuse University (New York), I began my career in New York City at WeWork as an interior designer. This position led me to open more than 20 projects in 13 cities, with stints in Tel Aviv, London, and then Paris.

Before that, my career had already led me through architecture, scenography (at Bureau Betak), and furniture design, disciplines that I continue to make dialogue in my work today.

In 2020, I founded Bengio Studio, my multidisciplinary workshop, to support residential and commercial projects, and to develop my own furniture collection.

My approach: cross the tools and methods of these different creative professions to give birth to unique, functional spaces with a true identity.
