A unique and unexpected way of using of porcelain in the city to dress up the new facade of the Dolce&Gabbana flahsip store on Avenue Montaigne in Paris. No less than 90,000 porcelain cylinders were manufactured in our Limoges factory to cover the front and back of the building. Design by FRESH architectures, ROUSSEAU & DAPELO.
Allié - Stool
Allié is both a stool and an occasional table that from its small volume emits a ton of character. A totem with a strong line, hands on hips. The base and top are integrally molded in polyurethane foam and connected by two metal handles that give it a solid structure and the ability to move easily. The matte material of the main body is contrasted by the metallic finish of its handles, and their contemporary color palette completes the playful and fun dimension of this object that can be moved indoors or outdoors.
Pascal Gravaud
Pascal Gravaud studied architecture at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, a place where history rubs shoulders with modern life, and the arts share space and echo each other far beyond the walls of that school, all the way into the streets of the neighborhood that surrounds it. It's a discovery, rather than just a place to learn, with encounters that invite students to reconsider the world in a new light, a place where they learn to envision things and, most importantly, see the world through new eyes. Ever since then, Pascal Gravaud and his team have been envisioning the city, his favorite playground, imagining architectural projects, and reconfiguring existing spaces. Whatever the scale of a project, Pascal Gravaud's workshop works hard to imagine space, define it, liberate it or shape it, all while questioning everyday realities in a critical, even ironic manner...This is architecture as a revelation, which suggests what remains unseen. At the Gravo-Skola, Pascal Gravaud teaches his students to create atmospheres, rather than simply applying a system, and draws them into a world of pleasure-filled inspiration, rather than doctrine. Within this individual and collective context, his assistants and clients will tell you how unique each project is, and the constant attention he pays to singular qualities, in a world that's leaning toward uniformity. At each edition of the Maison&Objet fair, Pascal Gravaud takes architects and buyers through Paris showrooms. He helps them discover the latest exhibits, hotels and restaurants, but also gives them a guided tour of the Flea Market in Saint Ouen, a place he knows like the back of his hand! And so, he can't wait to discover the new Maison&Objet In The City tour, with international design professionals all around.
