LES PIERRES SAUVAGES I THIBAULT HUGUET

January – April 2026

For the start of the 2026 academic year, ARCHIK Marseille is hosting “LES PIERRES SAUVAGES” (WILD STONES), an installation combining architecture, design, and craftsmanship, conceived by Thibault Huguet.

ARCHIK presents “Les Pierres Sauvages”, an exhibition by designer Thibault Huguet showcasing the results of his research conducted in collaboration with marble-working students at the UNICEM campus. Stone is the main focus of this exhibition, as in the eponymous novel by Fernand Pouillon, architect of the reconstruction of Marseille’s Old Port.

Stone lace, openwork blocks, micro-architecture: the artifacts presented in this exhibition show how a designer collaborates with craftsmen to rediscover a material. By questioning the tools, gestures, and practices of these young marble workers, designer Thibault Huguet imagines new applications for the main character of this exhibition, Villebois stone, which is also wild in many ways.

By hosting this project, ARCHIK continues its commitment to supporting young creators and promoting crossovers between architecture, design, and craftsmanship.

For this exhibition, Thibault Huguet chose to work with Villebois stone, a limestone marked by veins and clay faults, which is both demanding and rich in nuances. The result of research conducted with the UNICEM campus in Montalieu-Vercieu, this material reveals, through cutting and polishing, cloud-like patterns and unexpected visual depth, transforming a modest resource into a true surface for expression.

L'artiste

Thibault Huguet, a French designer who graduated from the École Supérieure d’Art et Design de Saint-Étienne, founded his studio in 2020. Based in Brussels and resident at Zaventem Ateliers since 2024, he has developed a cross-disciplinary practice combining creation, research, and transmission. His work explores the links between design and craftsmanship, reinventing techniques and skills through materials. He collaborates with manufacturers as well as French and Belgian artisans, questioning production methods and the boundaries between industry and craftsmanship. In 2024, Mobilier National selected his LAMPE#1 for its collection, then commissioned him to create two PLANE consoles for the Élysée Palace.

In 2022, he co-founded the Meet Met Met collective with Jean-Baptiste Anotin, with whom he curated the Factory spaces at Paris Design Week in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Alongside his studio work, he has been teaching design at the École Boulle for three years.

An encounter between Marseille’s heritage, architectural thinking, and the art of stone cutting, following in the footsteps of Fernand Pouillon.

L’ÉCRIN I MARIE JEUNET

Janvier – Avril 2026

For the 2026 fall season in design and decoration, ARCHIK Paris welcomes “L'ECRIN,” an ode to materials imagined by Marie Jeunet.

In the rich landscape of contemporary design, Parisian artist and designer Marie Jeunet stands out for her luminous sculptures that transcend matter and capture the essence of light. Her delicate and sensitive work magnifies materials such as glass, brass, and stone, revealing their uniqueness through subtle plays of light that bring hypnotic pieces to life, conducive to daydreaming.

These refined creations play on illusion: glass that appears smooth yet is steeped in history, rigid brass that turns out to be supple, the false lightness of a stone piece…

For the staging of her exhibition “L’ECRIN,” Marie Jeunet turned to Casamance, a leading name in fabric design. The brand is renowned for its exquisitely crafted fabrics, reflecting expert craftsmanship. For this exhibition, Marie chose a very refined golden brown Mennagio taffeta with a crisp drape.

The decoration was created by the Relax Factory upholstery workshop, which designed a refined space playing with the drapes of the fabric to evoke the delicate folds of a jewel box, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in a world that is both raw and sophisticated.

L'artiste

Passionate about decorative arts and jewelry, Marie Jeunet imagines her works as interior jewelry that, once illuminated, reveal the beauty of the materials they are made of.

Her unique approach, straddling the boundary between art and design, and her attention to detail make each piece a truly precious object, imbued with sensitivity and grace. A delicate balance, a subtle blend of minimalist forms and dreamlike projections.

HORIZONS CROISÉS I MARC LACROIX

December 2025 – March 2026

Horizons Croisés, the new exhibition dedicated to the photographic work of Marc Lacroix inaugurates the first chapter of a series of encounters at our ARCHIK House in Arcachon.

Through his precise and contemplative gaze, Marc Lacroix reveals spaces as silent scenes, shaped by the subtle tension between geometric rigor and luminous poetry. His photographs capture the essence of a place: sharp lines, controlled volumes, raw materials, always enhanced by light that sculpts and reveals rather than imposes.

His color palette, rich in contrasts, combines the warm tones of Morocco with the soothing shades of the Atlantic coast. The result is a harmony that draws the eye between the arid South and the maritime West.

.

The artist

Architectural and interior photographer Marc Lacroix has been developing a demanding practice since 2019, guided by technical precision, attention to detail, and a focus on showcasing spaces. After an initial career spanning more than twenty years in international creative and commercial environments, he now puts this experience to use in developing a unique perspective, capable of capturing the soul of a place (houses, apartments, hotels, restaurants, or cultural spaces) thanks to his mastery of light, composition, and digital retouching. His versatile background, marked by a strong culture of service, organization, and customer relations, feeds into a rigorous and sensitive approach that makes his images both narrative tools and aesthetic objects. From Marrakech to Arcachon, his photographs accurately reveal the balance between architecture, design, and atmosphere, offering a personal and elegant interpretation of the spaces he explores.

Photographs that not only document a space but also
reveal its intimate nature.

EX LIBRIS I 10 ANS ARCHIK

Septembre – Décembre 2025

To celebrate its 10th anniversary, ARCHIK invited 10 artists and designers to revisit the same object: the bookend. Exclusive editions are presented at our Marseille headquarters through the group exhibition Ex Libris.

A variation on a theme, drawing on different skills and materials to reveal the stylistic richness of a classic library item that has fallen into disuse.

This exhibition pays tribute to the graphic universe that has surrounded books for centuries, as well as to the artists who still strive to renew the genre today, thereby preserving the magic of libraries, in contrast to the all-digital world.

A theme that echoes the release of the sixth edition of the Revue, the agency’s annual publication that expresses the founders’ keen interest in printed matter and beautiful books.

LE CHANT DES VESTIGES I LDG ART & PATRIMOINE

Juin 2025

ARCHIK is hosting “Le Chant des Vestiges”, a group exhibition conceived by gallery owner Laetitia de Galzain, founder of the LDG Art & Patrimoine gallery.

Manon Garcia del Barrio, artist and textile designer, and La Fille de Tipaza, ceramic artist, invite us into a silent world of materials and textures, white noise and memory.

Sharing a common source of inspiration, the Mediterranean, the two artists offer us an immersion into times long gone, which each of us can approach at our own pace, explore with our eyes, and bring back traces of: fragments of pottery, antique notebooks, treasures from the sea, delicate silhouettes, and majestic forms covered in seaweed and moss.

Carried by the words of Isabelle Alentour, poet of intimacy, the works take shape and voice, revealing life where everything seemed destined to disappear in a subdued, whispered world, where only resistant forms remain.

Les artistes

Manon Garcia del Barrio – textile artist
Manon Garcia del Barrio lives and works in Marseille. She weaves sensitive works from natural fibers and recycled materials, combining textiles, storytelling, and memory. With strong ties to the sea, her work explores the links between materials, territory, and transmission. A graduate of HEAR, she recently completed a residency in Nigeria and exhibited at the Marseille History Museum.

Isabelle Alentour – poet
Born in Marseille, Isabelle Alentour comes from a background in scientific and clinical research. Her poetic writing, nourished by listening and wonder, extends artistic gestures with a hushed, whispered voice. She regularly collaborates with visual artists.

La Fille de Tipaza – ceramic artist
Delphine Picard, alias La Fille de Tipaza, creates ceramic pieces imbued with silence and memory. Inspired by the Mediterranean and the poetry of Albert Camus, she shapes clay with a raw and instinctive sensitivity, making the material the vehicle for an emotion rooted in intimacy and landscape.

LE PAYSAGE DES CHOSES I AMELIE BAUDIN

Juin 2025

For its summer exhibition in Paris, ARCHIK invites artist
Amélie Baudin to present her sensual and organic works.

In her new exhibition, “LE PAYSAGE DES CHOSES”, Amélie Baudin composes a dreamlike, almost suspended territory, where the works, intertwining sensual curves and rigorous edges, never impose themselves.

A sensitive installation in which each piece, both gentle and austere, fits into a rhythm, a breath, and takes the time to exist.

The designer

Trained at Villa Arson and the Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg, Amélie Baudin initially put her vision and sensitivity to work for major companies as a creative director. In 2008, she founded Studio Officina, a multidisciplinary laboratory combining set design, curation, and artistic direction, building bridges between cultures, skills, and artists.

Her return to sculpture marks a natural extension of this trajectory. Amélie explores materials without typology or scale, with instinctive curiosity. She does not define herself as a ceramist, but rather as a free artist, guided by a sensory and organic approach, between art and design.

“Forms and materials engage in silent dialogue, creating an intimate, timeless interior landscape.”

L’ÉCRIN I MARIE JEUNET

April 2025

ARCHIK welcomes “L'ECRIN”,
an ode to matter imagined by Marie Jeunet.

In the teeming landscape of contemporary design, Parisian artist-designer Marie Jeunet stands out for her luminous sculptures that transcend materials and capture the essence of light. Her delicate, sensitive work magnifies materials such as glass, brass and stone, revealing their singularity through a subtle play of reflections, giving life to hypnotic luminaires conducive to reverie.

These refined creations play on illusion: glass that looks smooth yet is full of history, rigid brass that turns out to be supple, the false lightness of a stone piece…

To stage her exhibition “L’ECRIN”, Marie Jeunet turned to Casamance, a benchmark in fabric publishing. The brand is renowned for its finely crafted fabrics, reflecting expert know-how. For this exhibition, Marie chose a Mennagio mordoré taffeta with a brittle, refined fall.

The Relax Factory tapestry workshop was responsible for the décor, creating a refined space that plays with the drapery of the fabric to evoke the delicate folds of a jewel case, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in a universe that is both raw and sophisticated.

The artist

Passionate about the decorative arts and jewelry, Marie Jeunet imagines her works as interior jewels that, once illuminated, reveal the beauty of the materials they’re made of.

Her unique approach, on the border between art and design, and her attention to detail, make each piece a truly precious object, imbued with sensitivity and grace. A delicate balance, a subtle blend of minimalist forms and dreamlike projections.

ARCENCIELOPHILE I EKHI BUSQUET

April 2025

ARCHIK welcomes “arcencielophile”,
an exhibition under the chromatic arc of Ekhi Busquet.

A retrospective of the designer and artistic director’s collaborations, this exhibition is a veritable immersion in her sunny, polychromatic universe, an ode to the palette of colors that characterizes her, to her love of the prism, a meteorological miracle.

An arcencielophile is someone who, after a rain shower, looks up to the sky
the sky in search of that colorful miracle. A hunter of technicolor emotions, an aesthete of the fleeting, a collector of celestial reflections.
It’s also a state of mind: a way of seeing life in nuances, of believing in joy after the storm, of walking on the side of the sun as an art of living. For there’s something almost militant in the rainbow: a demand for beauty, a reminder that unexpected poetry can emerge from any contrast or disruption.

In her creations, the Basque designer plays with architectural lines, awakened by the bold colors that have become her signature. Her pieces are designed to last, transcending trends and embodying a form of modernity at the crossroads of the functional and the cosmic.

On the occasion of her exhibition at our Parisian Maison ARCHIK, Ekhi Busquet will be showing the fruit of her collaborations with Atelier Paolo, Fabien Barrero Carsenat and Kymo Floor. But above all, she will be previewing her second collaboration with designer Matthieu Vergote: the Seins-Germain collection of blown glasses, the fruit of their characteristic joyful impertinence!

The artist

Designer and art director, Ekhi celebrates a desacralized vision of design and puts her crayons at the service of the “World to Come”. In keeping with the commitments she made early on in her career, she makes a point of signing collaborations with a strong social and environmental impact.

Born in Bayonne, France, and a graduate of the École Boulle in Paris and the Politecnico di Milano, Ekhi began her career with major luxury houses, where she headed the scenography department before founding her own global design studio. For the past 8 years, Ekhi has been applying her talent to 360° creative playgrounds (Art Direction, Digital Content, Retail, Interior Architecture, etc.).

With a solar energy and an emancipated vision, Ekhi multiplies projects, distinguishing itself with polychromic creations for big names (Pierre Hermé, L’Oréal, Dior) as well as for committed and promising young start-ups.

“For this sunny exhibition, ARCHIK has given me carte blanche to play with my favorite material: joy! Together we’ll celebrate the beautiful vector of change”.

TRACES & CONTEMPLATION I ARCHITECTURE CÉRAMIQUE

March 2025

ARCHIK invites you to discover “Traces & Contemplation” by architects Frédéric Bourdiec and Maxence Renard, who explore the fields of ceramics and photography respectively. Through this four-handed exhibition, Frédéric and Maxence question our view of housing and urban spaces.

Above all, his pieces speak for themselves. Each piece is part of a series named Les Lilas, Vue sur Mer, Canon à Lumière, and evokes particular eras, places or construction techniques. The aim is clear: to make the object tell its own story, even before it is explained.

His lamps and tables are not just functional: they become sculptural, capable of transforming a space. If they illuminate, they also illuminate the idea of the object as a trace of architecture and collective memory.

Frédéric explores the constraints of the material and the technical possibilities offered by ceramics. Each filling becomes an experiment in finesse, weight, assembly methods and texture. Inspiration from Pierre and Vera Szekely and André Bloc resonates in his volumes and surfaces.

The aridity of large modern cities, the brutality of functionalist buildings from the 50s and 70s and the mass layouts of large housing estates permeate his work. Each of his creations is both a tribute to and an interrogation of social housing.

The artists

Architects by training and graduates of ENSA Marseille, Frédéric Bourdiec and Maxence Renard explore, each in their own way, the links between architecture, art and perception.

Frédéric Bourdiec, known as Architecture Céramique, transposes his architectural vision into ceramic sculptures inspired by the Brutalist and Functionalist buildings of the 50s and 70s. Crafted with precision and sensitivity, his works question notions of scale, texture and light, while telling an intimate, urban story.

Photographer Maxence Renard focuses on revealing the subtle interplay between shapes, colors and perspectives. In his work, whether architectural or fashion photography, he explores materials and contrasts, capturing light to offer a new perception of the spaces he immortalizes.

Their joint work, nourished by their training as architects, questions the spaces that surround us and reveals the hidden beauty of materials, shapes and volumes.

This exhibition is an invitation to observe the resonance between matter, light and memory.

TOTEM I HEJU STUDIO

January 2025

To celebrate the start of an intense new year, ARCHIK invites you to discover “Totem”, an exhibition featuring the architectural duo HEJU Studio and their unique vision of timeless, sustainable design.

“Totem” is a retrospective of HEJU Studio’s collaborations with French brands and galleries sharing the same values of timelessness and sustainability: Ressource, Carocim, Nobodinoz, La Lune and Virginie Lesage. Through a selection of furniture collections, materials and artworks, this exhibition celebrates a singular aesthetic where rounded reliefs, graphic forms and primitive architectural vocabulary intertwine to create sensitive, poetic objects.

Sculptural furniture, graphic cement tiles, subtle hues and objets d’art: each piece on display embodies a dialogue between minimalism and expressive architectural forms. The totemic figure, omnipresent in their work, becomes here the common thread of a universe where craft, material and light meet.

The artists

Hélène Pinard and Julien Schwartzmann, architects and founders of Heju Studio, met at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Strasbourg, where they graduated top of their class. Together, they have created a unique universe inspired by Japanese and Scandinavian aesthetics.

Their sensitive, spontaneous approach optimizes spaces, challenges codes and brings emotion and poetry to everyday life. They attach great importance to materials, colors and textures, creating atmospheres that appeal to all the senses.

Fervent advocates of the continuity between art, design and architecture, they conceive projects that merge disciplines and inspirations. Each project is unique, reflecting a luminous, calm simplicity enriched by a distinctive personality.

An invitation to plunge into the world of HEJU Studio, where architecture dialogues with design in a quest for balance and poetry.

FE + C

September 2024

To coincide with the release of Revue N°5 on the theme of Metal, ARCHIK extends its tribute to this material to Marseille and presents Fe + C, an exhibition by memòri studio.

The physical embodiment of La Revue N°5’s “Objects of Covetousness” column, the memòri studio has reproduced the interior of the director of the insurance firm “Fe + C”, a design enthusiast and creative genius with avant-garde ideas.

In the 1980s, he designed furniture for his offices. The man who seemed eccentric at the time had an unusual metal set made by an industrialist: bookcase, desk, wall lamps and coffee table.

He’s as passionate about the brilliant shine of alloys as he is about manual activities; he gathers his clay, his pigments and experiments. The result is an extravagant yet extraordinarily beautiful interior where materials and textures come together. He paints his walls a self-made brick-red color reminiscent of iron mines.

Les artistes

Founded in 2020, memòri is a creative studio that brings together different craft disciplines with the aim of constantly questioning practices and their transmission. It’s an ode to singular traditions, to know-how rooted in the Mediterranean basin, with the desire to reactivate collective memories to make them alive and current again.

On the borderline between the production of objects in very small quantities and the creation of a wardrobe of unique pieces, the exploration continues with a selection of 20th-century design objects and furniture. The studio works in these different fields, with the sole aim of integrating a craftsman’s approach and a sustainable approach to manufacturing and production.

Between invention, design and utopia, this dreamy, imaginative, manual creator is inhabited and tortured by a whirlwind of singular ideas.
