ATELIER BBB

NEWS: Exhibition in New York at Art since the summer of 69, the name of the show is Objects, Furniture & Patterns. Visit possible from december 10th to January 10th.
Participation together with Adrien Missika to Present Future, the emerging artist section at Artissima 16, from 6 to 8 november 2009. For this occasion, the magazine Kaleidoscope will furnish his booth with some of my latest productions.

Atelier BBB is making projects around functional and industrial objects for the widest range of context. Time goes fast and so, one of the only rules at Atelier BBB is not to be in a hurry. You can below find some works by atelier BBB and not enough texts. Atelier BBB is an office composed of just one person trying to make as less final products as possible. More texts will come soon. Atelier BBB is reachable by email at : mail@atelierbbb.com, or by post: Atelier BBB, Route de Grandvaux 31, CH-1072, Forel (Lavaux). Here are a bio and friends.
