The meeting between architecture and gastronomy is expressed on some artistic movement called "still lifes". Inspired by this movement, we created an artistic installation that works as a transversality support between art, territory, architecture and gastronomy. This art work was exhibit during the 4th PARI Biennale of architecture in Paris.

Thanks to this event and with these cross-disciplinary concept, we succeed to give a more contemporary aspect of this brandy. In fact, the challenge was to compose a creative team that will revitalize this old and traditionnal alcohol. Thus, we linked chefs and artist with local producers, and created a new environnment to welcome their meeting.

This gallery is located in the heart of Kyoto, in a traditional house where artists can both practice and exhibit their works. We renovated one using recycled materials such as washi and tatami and modernize them for this space.

This young theatre company invited us to design the scenography of their play. They are questionning the paradoxes and craziness human can feel when climbing a mountain. Then, we had to bring a mountain into a theater.

The project is run by Empowerment Society Int founded by the native Peter Gbelia.

We are studying the urban design and architecture of a future campus in Liberia, in collaboration with Mio Shibuya, japanese architect and Claudia Del Bubba, italian interior designer.

The campus gather many fonctions, as in a small village: it’s a community place for family and tourism and at the same time, a cultural heritage and development place for users and visitors.

This exhibition was a comparative dialogue between the first intuitive sketch and the final building. Original sketches and study models of Jacques Ripault are displayed in harmony in the MACVAL, a museum he designed himself.

43 original drawings are exhibit in the window displays of the Hermès shop, at the 24th Faubourg Saint Honoré street. According to the clothes collection, the sepia colors of the enigmatic creatures are creating an unexpected atmosphere, between naive art, strangeness world and luxury products.

Always sensitive about the world that surrounds us, this colorimetric catalogue is born from urban daily walks. First based on a photographic work, and then a graphic one, an RGB color code is revealed and developed as a new language, usable by any media.

On an area of 236km by 70km wide, from Zurich to Milan, we analyzed population movements, mobility controversies and territory disparities.

By working on a territorywide scale, we designed a future spatial logical structure linked by specific motilities infrastructure across Alps.

The project creates common synergies between the valley and the mountains by merging ancestral rural knowledge related to agriculture with new residential and economic services.

The project offers a sustainable revitalization for the inhabitants of the Alpine region combining the metropolitan intensity and the rural serenity.

The theme of the 1st Pli Public Workshop was “The Obsession”.

In collaboration with the architect and fashion designer Cecile Gray, we design this artwork combining three obsessions.

The architect obsession for the grid, here working as our base for weaving, the human obsession for the unreachable mountain, that fascinates as much as it is feared, and the obsession mood we had to be while creating the artwork : a metaphor for the madness of repeated gestures, thousands of times.

From the building to the roof tiles, from the Rue de Rennes to the Montparnasse station façade elements, this drawing is showing in detail the Montparnasse district area.

Highlight the qualities and show values of the U.A.P.S. urban project “Que Dalle”, this drawing was exhibit in the Pavillon de l’Arsenal in 2019.

These two drawings made exclusively for Christmas are a part of the winter display : next to dry flowers, turtles and golden Santa Claus seat inside the George V shop.

You can see them on the background of a photobooth on the ground floor and on the first floor of the shop.

Growing between France and Japan, but also between a rural area and a big city, Sanae Nicolas is interested about the question of the “memory”, and how important the rooms are influencing our personality of today.

For the Hida Furniture Competition, we designed a wooden sliding door, inspired by stained glass, moucharabieh and shoji.

This handmade door brings colours inside the room following the natural light of the day.

During the night, the wooden braided door highlighted from inside the building, are displaying artwork to the street.

The theme of the seminar was “Representation of Japanese Culture in Europe, from “Japonism” to “Cool Japan”.

After explaining how we interact with these two artistic influences today, we showed how we place the nature and human interaction at heart of every project, by taking also advantage of the influence of Cool Japan and the technologically pioneering Japan.

Facades, floors, ceilings, furnitures... Have you ever walk into a multi-dimensional drawing ?

For the Tokyo Biennale, we push forward the dialogue between architecture and drawing and offer the visitor to dive into the artist’s mind.

Then, from inner walls to roof tiles, you experienced a total artwork.
