Bespoke

From place to piece

A bespoke piece does more than change scale. Dimensions, materials, finishes, structure and light are composed around the use, architecture and intention of the place.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Understand the place, use and intention.

  2. 02

  5. 05

    Install

    Deliver, place and pass on the conditions of use.

The place first

A presence composed for a place

A bespoke creation takes shape from the available material, the light of the place and its intended use. The project becomes a meeting between architecture, gesture and mineral.

Collection studies

Beyond the catalogue

Nothing that follows is in stock. These are the House's four catalogue collections, developed project by project, with materials, dimensions and finishes priced by quotation. The pieces actually available are gathered in the collection.

Collection I

Furniture

Statement pieces composed for a place when scale or use go beyond what the catalogue can offer.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une pièce de représentation monumentale, plateau de bois massif à bords naturels traversé d'une rivière de résine rétroéclairée, façade de pierre translucide portant un médaillon de bronze, sur un socle sculptural sombre

    Statement furniture

    Executive desks, entrance consoles and monumental pieces. Solid wood with natural edges, resin rivers, integrated light and a metal emblem, composed for a specific place.

Collection II

Interior architecture

Here the material is no longer placed in a setting; it becomes part of it. Dimensions, openings, drainage and loads are validated with the project's professionals before making.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une vasque taillée dans un bloc de bois pétrifié, gardée à bord d'écorce brut et posée sur un plan dont la façade rétroéclairée laisse passer la lumière

    Mineral inhabits water

    Integrated basin cabinets, façades and decorative elements. Unlike the freestanding basin in the catalogue, this is a complete architectural work.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une salle d'eau sombre, receveur sculpté en pierre claire devant une paroi de bois pétrifié

    Mineral spaces

    Sculpted shower trays, walls and plinths make the bathroom a space of material rather than an equipped wet room.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une paroi d'étagères à montants de métal sombre, fond de panneaux de bois pétrifié rétroéclairés, présentant une coupe à bord d'écorce, une sphère polie et un disque minéral sur son socle

    Surfaces & setting

    Panels, façades, shelves and counters compose a quiet architecture around the pieces. Integrated lighting, recessed joints, no applied ornament.

Collection III

Objects & decoration

A smaller scale, with the same attention to the cut, polish and hand. The bowls, basins and polished specimens in this collection are available in the catalogue.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'un vide-poche, d'un cendrier et d'une boîte en bois pétrifié groupés sur un socle noir

    Objects & accessories

    Catchalls and trays, ashtrays and accessories, bookends and boxes. Volumes to hold rather than pieces to install.

  • Visualisation éditoriale de trois pièces murales, un bas-relief poli, un disque minéral brut et une plaque de bronze patiné

    Wall memories

    Bas-reliefs, mineral discs and plaques of bronze, brass or patinated steel. Signs composed to converse with a place or its identity.

Collection IV

Object light

Light reveals rather than decorates: it underlines a silhouette, passes through a mineral and gives the material a second reading. Four motifs guide the collection: the baobab for rootedness and elevation, the lemur for its lively gaze, the chameleon for curve and nuance, and, more broadly, the forms of life.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'un lampadaire en bronze sombre en forme de baobab, dont le tronc porte un insert de bois pétrifié rétroéclairé

    Mineral baobab

    A study with a mineral insert. The trunk carries a translucent petrified-wood plate, the piece's sole light source.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une suspension en laiton martelé formant une canopée qui projette une lumière tachetée au sol

    Canopy

    A hammered-metal study. Each hammer blow fragments the light and projects it like a canopy of leaves.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une lampe sculpturale au volume courbe abstrait, en bronze patiné vert-brun

    Whale

    A patinated-finish study. A smooth, curved volume where raking light follows the movement rather than illuminating it.

  • Visualisation éditoriale d'une tranche de bois pétrifié rétroéclairée sur un pied noir, ses cernes traversés par la lumière

    Fauna & flora

    Living silhouettes translated with restraint through a vocabulary of lines, volumes and passing light.

  • Photograph of a MEDUSA light: beneath a dark, copper-lined shade, three hammered-bronze trunks rise from a base of petrified-wood marquetry ringed with brass

    Branches

    A piece already made. Three hammered-bronze trunks meet beneath the shade, rising from a base of petrified-wood marquetry ringed with brass. Here the light falls onto the material rather than passing through it.

Imagine a light

Unless the card states otherwise, these fields are collection studies and design proposals. Materials, dimensions, finishes, availability and feasibility are confirmed by quotation and approved plan.

Discuss your project

A showroom visit is the starting point: the material is chosen at its true scale, under several kinds of light.
