PARIS DESIGN WEEK

9th – 18th  September 2021

ARCHIK loves architecture, art and design. And so it is only natural that it should join the Marais path of Paris Design Week PDW21, from 9th to 18th September 2021.

An open-air show created in 2011 by Maison&Objet, Paris Design Week has become a must-attend event for the general public, design experts and professionals. For 9 days, a selection of galleries, museums and emblematic brands offer ephemeral exhibitions, openings and meetings around design.

From 9th to 18th September 2021, our Maison ARCHIK Paris opens its doors to the public, highlighting the work of 5 young designers, all winners of the Design Parade Hyères.
The exhibition “Echoes”, organised in partnership with the Villa Noailles, the Cirva and the Musée Borély in Marseille, presents sculptures, creative research and everyday objects by designers Samy Rio, Pernelle Poyet, Julie Richoz, Sara de Campos and Carolien Niebling.

Each object presented is a bridge between ideas, know-how and worlds. Design becomes a bridge between tradition and modernity, form and colour, drawing and volume.

The Designers

Pernelle Poyet
Through her Autels Particuliers, Pernelle Poyet questions the evocative power of objects. Her sculptures, creative experiments inspired by the religious and the play of light and shadow, seek to transcribe elements of drawing into volume.

Julie Richoz
How can design and its production techniques translate the finesse and nuances of a drawing? To what extent can they take a new look at an age-old skill? This is the bridge that Julie Richoz has chosen to explore: her Giro ceramics made in Fez with the publisher Trame are the fruit of an enchanting balance between modern vision and traditional craft.

Samy Rio
Samy Rio is also committed to using design as a mouthpiece for know-how. With his Dota walker, published by ARCHIK, he confronts bamboo and anodised aluminium, in other words tradition and modernity. The bamboo is worked by hand until it becomes a perfect tube, giving the piece a contemporary look, and underlining the precision of the manual work and the potential of a natural and ecological material.

Sara de Campos
This deep concern for detail, durability and functionality is also found in Sara de Campos. Since Lisbon, the designer has been developing a series of objects and furniture that demonstrate a sensitive approach to materials and a minimalism that reveals the intrinsic beauty of the material.

Carolien Niebling
In another register, Carolien Niebling uses design to unite the fields of science and food. Her book “The Sausage of the Future” questions the techniques used to produce sausages, which are often equated with junk food, and imagines new future potentials for them, more consistent with a sustainable food culture.

Paris Design Week, a unifying event
under the aegis of the art of living,
dedicated to the young designers.

The Opening

Raphaëlle FORMOSA

Brand Director

+33 (0) 6 47 47 83 82
raphaelle.formosa@archik.fr

With her head full of ideas and the desire to sell them, Raphaëlle first plunged into the world of advertising agencies. For ten years, she put all her energy into strategy and creativity for brands. Then, the desire to work more concretely for the daily life of Parisians led her to work for the public service, in the communication department of the RATP.

But at the same time, a new desire took shape: always attracted by decoration and design pieces, she gradually refined her eye and her tastes, with a particular affection for the interior architects Laura Gonzalez and Dorothée Meilichzon, or the designers Charlotte Perriand and India Mahdavi. From decoration, she moved on to renovation: under the spell of the old, she enjoyed rethinking her first flat, then the second. She likes to sublimate the history of places and quickly becomes passionate about detecting the potential of old properties.

In love with a more intimate Paris, always on the lookout for confidential addresses, she admits to being rather “Right Bank”. When she discovered ARCHIK, she was immediately won over by its hybrid positioning between real estate, design and architecture. Naturally, she joined the Paris agency as soon as it opened, as a negotiator. A role that allows her to accompany her clients in their projects, as a true partner on whom her clients can rely.

Inauguration ARCHIK Paris

June 24, 2021

We have inaugurated our new Maison ARCHIK Paris in the heart of the Marais.

In Paris, located in the heart of the Marais, our new address extends over two floors Solid oak, steel and ribbed glass, materials are the main feature of this 160 m² space which houses our teams and partners. It is furnished and decorated like a flat by brands and designers such as Kann Design, Red Édition, JOA and GOODMOODS.

The Maison ARCHIK Paris hosts ephemeral exhibitions, a curation of design and furniture pieces, and soon exclusive events such as conferences, talks, workshops or chefs’ dinners.

During the inauguration, our walls were dressed by Murs Blancs with the colourful paintings of the duo Baltus & Person, punctuated by the ceramics of Léa Ginac; and in the gallery, the Série 04, Paradis Perdus collection by the Marseille-based designer Margaux Keller, with its variation of seats, vases, and delicately charming glasses, all produced in limited series, putting the South in the spotlight.

Paradis perdus I Margaux Keller

March – June 2021

``True paradises are the paradises we have lost`` said Marcel Proust in his book Le temps retrouvé.

This is the quote that inspired the Marseille-based designer Margaux Keller for the fourth collection of her eponymous furniture brand.

“This new series is a parade, an imaginary world that seems familiar: a country house in Provence, an orangery, an oasis of wonders, a magnified childhood memory. Open your eyes wide, remember the sweet scent of orange blossoms…”. These are the memories and precious feelings that guided Margaux Keller in the creation of each piece of this very personal collection.

The designer thus highlights her desire to work with artisans who are sensitive to materials and to the emotional dimension that everyday objects provide. A poetry of materials, senses, shapes and lights that allows a sensitive and unique escape.

Margaux Keller

After training at Olivier de Serres, she joined the Ecole Boulle in Paris, from which she graduated in 2010 with honors. Margaux Keller then trained at the Philippe Starck agency, alongside Eugeni Quitllet. In 2011, she was selected to be part of the design team of Fabrica, the Benetton group’s communication research center.
But strong of her attachment to her native city, Marseille, she feels the call of the South. And decided in 2012 to create her own global design agency there, developing a wide range of partnerships with Yves Saint-Laurent Beauté, Bibelo, Roche Bobois, Cartier, Made.com, La Redoute Intérieurs, Habitat, SIA Home Fashion and La Monnaie de Paris. In 2019, she founded her own publishing house Margaux Keller Collections, in association with Anaïs Fretigny.

A publishing house that offers series of furniture and objects in limited edition, made locally by craftsmen with exceptional know-how.

Carnations | Caroline Venet

2021

Carnations' is a research work mixing leather and recycled porcelain clay.

This is a limited series of objects and furniture for the home, unique pieces handmade in France, made in collaboration with the ceramist Fanny Richard, the leather worker Aurélie Chadaine, and the tile factory Normandy Ceramics.

The leather scraps, end of series or rejects from the fashion industry, are collected to be revalorized, sublimated by their asperities, irregularities of the skin, scars, natural wrinkles or veins, which make the uniqueness of each object. It is a meeting of materials and know-how, between the suppleness of a leather skin and the velvetiness of hard porcelain or enamelled stoneware.

In order to perpetuate Studiofoam’s enchanting universe, and still in the logic of offering a global product, we have co-published ONDE(S), a limited edition luminous suspension.

Caroline Venet

Caroline Venet created Studiofoam in 2017, which she conceives as a research laboratory. Through this design studio, Caroline proposes a unique interpretation of materials, questions manufacturing techniques and processes, between innovation and traditional know-how. The designer explores the boundaries between art, craft and design. She develops a multiple approach, from experimentation to installation, from material and surface design to product design, set design, scenography and art direction.

It is a meeting of materials and know-how, between the suppleness of a leather skin and the velvetiness of hard porcelain or glazed stoneware.

Marie CHEMIN

Sales Administration Manager

+33 (0) 6 30 41 42 53
marie.chemin@archik.fr

Since her end-of-study internship in Communication and Marketing at Maison ARCHIK in Toulouse, Marie has not left the adventure: for almost a year, she has been roaming the pink city as a negotiator, before joining Marseille in April 2018, as Sales Administration Manager. A valuable support provided daily to the teams in the three cities.

Right from the start, Maison ARCHIK seduced her for its innovative and meaningful concept… “It’s beautiful, simple and different. Crossing disciplines, highlighting the essence of a place, and perfecting the habitat are values that drive me, which is why I found myself in many codes…”. The work environment corresponds to her personality, which is oriented towards art, design, architecture and aesthetics. It is therefore natural that she immerses herself in this world of global thinking around the habitat.

What does she like about the city? Walking in the street, being attentive to buildings, trying to distinguish flats, inner courtyards, and finding unusual architecture or places. It’s a way for Marie to appreciate the atmosphere of cities, their different neighbourhoods, whether they have the charm of the old like the Carmes and Esquirol in Toulouse, whether they are cosmopolitan like the Vieux Port or Noailles in Marseille, or more historical like the Opéra or Marais districts in Paris. Different neighbourhoods, but lively, each in their own way.

OTCHO STUDIO

Interior Designer

architectes@archik.fr

Virginie began her studies with a master’s degree in Sociology in 2005. But it was at the Ecole Boulle in the Space Design section that she found her means of expression and true fulfilment.

She began her career in 2013 as a Project Manager at Atelier FB, a Parisian architecture firm, where she learned the rigour and technicality of the profession. In 2017, she finally founded her own architectural firm, Otcho Studio, to devote herself to a clientele of individuals wishing to rethink their homes.

Concerned with the dialogue between sociology and architecture, Virginie puts her sense of observation and intuition at the service of her projects. For her, finding the right equation between function and aesthetics requires a precise analysis of the space and materials, but also of the lifestyle and needs of the future occupants. “The boldness comes afterwards, to serve the simplicity and singularity of the place.

In terms of inspiration, Oscar Niemeyer, Luis Barragán, Frank Gehry, Charlotte Perriand, Andrée Putman, Gae Aulenti, Joaquim Tenreiro, David Hockney, René Magritte, Zao Wou-Ki, constitute Virginie’s non-exhaustive repertoire of references, whether for modernity, functionalism, audacity, colouring, abstraction, elegance or proportions.

Driven by the desire to understand her clients and the essence of their projects, Virginie shares with ARCHIK the quality of the support and the sense of detail that structure an architectural project and its success.

Jessica PAYET

Interior Designer

architectes@archik.fr

A Parisian with a sunny personality, Jessica began her career in an advertising agency and worked for ten years as a group leader. Passionate about decoration, she undertook a training in interior design and created Jessica Payet Interior Designer in March 2021.

Her work is influenced by the Haussmannian style, which she likes to break away from while retaining its charm. “All styles can work harmoniously if you have the keys and tips to do so. Jessica likes to make spaces timeless and unique by adapting to the personality and desires of its inhabitants. Her specialty? The creation of 3D perspectives allowing her to appropriate the places she invests. In love with nature, she favors natural materials such as wood, stone, rattan and plants such as Moonflower or Jasmine to purify the air in her projects.

Sensitive to the works of Sofia Lind for their romanticism and the curiosity they arouse, art is an integral part of her work: photographs, art reproductions, framed or panoramic to captivate the eyes. The opportunity for her clients to tell their stories in a unique way.

Seduced by the “art of living” according to ARCHIK, Jessica adheres to our 360° vision of real estate and becomes one of our Parisian partners. She accompanies you in your renovation projects, combining both beauty and well-being.

Sensible Paris

Decorators and designers

architectes@archik.fr

The duo at the head of Sensible Paris is composed of Sophie, a graduate of the Arts Décoratifs de Paris, and Florian, a design enthusiast. Sophie first cut her teeth in leather goods while Florian, a self-taught artist, worked as an exhibition director at Pascal Cuisinier Gallery, then trained in decoration with architect-scenographer Émilie Bonaventure.

Founded in 2019, Sensible is a multidisciplinary interior design studio. Sophie & Florian design precise and mixed interiors, finely selecting furniture, lighting and antique objects that they take great pleasure in hunting down. Celebrating gesture, proportion and material, Sensible advocates the concept of wabi-sabi, which values “time” as a new material.

Inspired by both fashion and the history of decorative arts, Sophie & Florian approach their projects as designers like the creation of a wardrobe. A few strong pieces matched with essentials, to define a unique style whose key words are functionality, timelessness and elegance. The manifesto of Sensible Paris can be summed up in this principle dear to William Morris: “Don’t have anything in your home that you don’t find useful or beautiful.”

The duo shares with ARCHIK the same requirement, but also a mission: to invent new ways of living well at home, to create its own “art” of living.
