Given that objects or solutions are produced, design must be considered as a resource that will help in the future of industry. Working with a designer depends not on the size of the company but on the desire to generate sensitive responses that are surprisingly pertinent and in tune with our times and subconscious expectations. The industrial designer is guided by an ethical contract: a product is there to provide us with a service not a disservice. A lasting relationship is then established between the object, the brand and the user.

Moustache Bikes Design Team, 2023

To encourage people to use bikes, it is essential to add new functions. In this electric bike made of hydroformed aluminium made by Moustache Bikes, a new configuration with automatic gear changing has been developed to achieve a high level of simplicity and smooth operation. Pedalling becomes a soothing pleasure.

Minimal Editions Undyed - Tente dôme MT900
Decathlon Forclaz Design Team, 2022

Dyeing is a significant source of CO2 emissions. To reduce its environmental impact, this aluminium and polyplastic tent by Decathlon uses 95% less dye. The result is natural white colours, like a symbol for new actions for the environment in the midst of nature. The tent also has a longer lifespan thanks to a bedroom and double roof available as spare parts.
