At the beginning of his career, Tristan Auer has collaborated with the most renowned French designer Christian Liaigre and Philippe Starck. In 2002 he founded his agency working on prestigious residential projects and international luxurious hotels. Standing out from the total design look, Tristan Auer developed his own style, a graphic and refined classicism. Tristan Auer has completed several hotels all over the world which include the charming Parisian Hotel Jules, the five stars Hotel LaSivoliere in Courchevel 1850, the transformation of the legendary Parisian nightclub Les Bains Douches into a five stars hotel and today the hotel Le Crillon in Paris. He collaborates with major real estate and hotel brands to develop their identity based on luxury and French savoir-faire. Conceptual in his approach but always tinged with a neoclassical style, Tristan Auer creates well-designed spaces with sophisticated details. It represents the French style succession, knowing how to mix styles and times, attached to the Art Deco spirit but remaining modern. He has earned his international reputation on bespoken and haute-couture interior design projects. In 2012, he has designed a refined and sumptuous jewellery box for Cartier’s stand at la Biennale des Antiquaires. La Maison Cartier continued its collaboration in 2014 for a new stand at La Biennale des Antiquaires and the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie in Geneva in 2015. From Mustique Island to New York, London to Paris and Oman, Tristan Auer’s talent and experience have become a reference to prestigious clients for their residential projects. Tristan Auer has also designed furniture for manufacturers as Pouenat (France), Contardi (Italy), Holly Hunt (US) Taillardat (France), Christophe Delcourt (France), Ozone (France). His high-end creations are a neoclassical and harmonious combination of all-time references.
