Agathe Toulemonde - France

The designer Agathe Toulemonde is the creative force behind Clovi Paris, a young French brand that blurs the boundaries between furniture and couture. At the heart of her vision lies a desire to create sculptural objects that are as sensual and tactile as they are generous. Each piece is upholstered in exquisite fabrics, sourced from artisanal weavers or reclaimed from dormant luxury stocks, making every series unique and limited. Agathe’s approach reflects her belief that design should be meaningful and enduring: objects that invite touch, carry emotion, and enrich everyday life. Through Clovi Paris, she reimagines furniture not only as functional pieces but as timeless companions: where craftsmanship, artistry and material come together in harmony.

Niki Stylianou - France

Trained in both science and fine arts, she explores materials such as clay, plaster, bronze, and hemp to capture what she calls the ‘quintessence of life’.

With her latest series, The Chrysalises of Gaia, Stylianou envisions a rebirth of consciousness through sculptures that merge organic forms with metaphysical reflections.

Sophie Luline - France

A master craftswoman, Sophie Luline shapes stoneware and porcelain into singular works of art, each infused with the rhythms of nature. Fourteen years ago, she opened her studio in Savoie, France, between lakes and mountains, blending the magic of the landscape, the wisdom of clay, and the spirit of the handmade.

At times described as baroque for their intertwining lines, layered forms, and floral volumes, her creations stem from a pursuit of pure, simple gesture. Working with only a rolling mill, a knife, and a roughing table, Sophie lets the hand take centre stage, leaving its mark and breathing life into the clay. Her gestural approach embraces spontaneity, allowing each piece to emerge with its own quiet vitality.

Fabrice Champenois - France

Fabrice Champenois is the founder of NixieFab, an atelier dedicated to the creation of unique Nixie clocks where craftsmanship and technology meet. After many years working in a large company, he realized that this path was not truly his. His deepest desire was to create tangible objects with his own hands — pieces capable of awakening the senses through sight, touch, and even smell. Passionate about wood, noble materials, and modern technologies, he discovered his true vocation by chance when he encountered a Nixie clock while watching a Netflix series. From that moment, the passion was born. He left his job and devoted months to studying the fascinating history of Nixie tubes, building his own wooden workshop from scratch and training with master cabinetmakers to perfect his skills. Unlike many enthusiasts who focused mainly on electronics, Fabrice envisioned the Nixie tube as a jewel deserving of an exceptional setting. He began creating cases from premium materials such as elm burl, Cuban mahogany, carbon fibre, and resin. This unique combination, enhanced by a French touch, gives his clocks a refined duality of time and aesthetics.

Thibaut Nussbaumer - France

Originally from eastern France, the cradle of glassmaking tradition, Thibaut Nussbaumer discovered the art of molten glass at the age of 18. After ten years of training in glass workshops across Europe, he settled in Toulouse in 2017 and founded TiPii Studio, a creative hub dedicated to glassblowing, collaboration, and exploration.

Through TiPii, Thibaut and his team bring a fresh perspective to traditional glassblowing, infusing their work with playfulness, poetry, and passion. Alongside the studio’s collections, he also develops more intimate creations inspired by his close observations of the natural world: the incandescent hues of a sunrise, the grainy textures of a riverbed, or the mineral imprints of a forgotten rock become inspirational material. These more intimate works explore the human relationship with time and transience. For Thibaut, the complexity of nature is a reminder of our humility and our transience, inspiring him to capture ephemeral impressions in glass. Through the material, he sought to suspend time and inscribe upon it a trace, infinitely fragile and precious. Indeed, his pieces are not simply objects, but vessels of memory and emotion — unique works of art that preserve a sense of eternity within the fragility of glass. www.thibautnussbaumer.com

Victor Tison - France

Founded by metal artist Victor Tison, Atelier Tison stands at the crossroads of furniture, sculpture, and design. His practice is both radically contemporary and deeply artisanal, rooted in precise technical mastery and a poetic vision of materials. A journey forged in craftsmanship With over a decade of experience in industry, fine metalwork, and bespoke bodywork, he has cultivated unique expertise in shaping and forming metals. Today, Victor channels this savoir-faire into the creation of sculptural furniture in mirror-polished brass. For him, brass is more than a noble material: it is a sensory medium. Hammered, folded, and polished entirely by hand, it comes to life through light, texture, and reflection. Each piece is the result of a meticulous process where raw metal is transformed into organic, fluid forms that interact with their surroundings, playing with shadows, movement, and atmosphere.
