Designer graduated from the Camondo school, he creates a range of furniture with salt and mycelium. He seeks to give structure to natural organisms in order to guide their growth. The result is a unique piece, because biofabrication has a random dimension making each piece impossible to reproduce identically.

His first experiment consisted of immersing a metal structure in a water bath saturated with minerals. This process allows the creation of unique crystals and although they have a development guided by the structure, the random aspect still comes into play.
