Hundreds of years before anyone was talking about sustainability, the Shakers, a community founded in the 18th century were already using methods that respected the environment. Taking their inspiration from their spirit of creation while saving resources and energy, the students produced a series of objects for the home using assembly and cabinetmaking techniques.

Graduates of the École des Beaux-Arts de Saint-Étienne, Grégory Blain and Hervé Dixneuf founded their own studio in 2007. Working mainly in the fields of objects, furniture and lighting, they explore and appropriate manufacturing processes as well as elements relating to form and techniques. Their projects reflect a search for harmony between design and function.
