We
are two designers, Louis-Jean Rigal and Louis-Noël Bretonnière,
working together in the design studio Jean Louis Noël. We
passed an art and design diploma in 2019 at HEAR (France).
We
grew up in Corrèze and Jura. These landscapes were the place of our
first artistic experiences, from building tree houses to our first
cairns.
Each
object we create is inspired by our childhood walks
in the forest and by our grandparents who farmed the land. Through
our activity as designers, we wish to share these moments and
sensations,
both lived and
passed down
through generations. Our projects are like
invitations
to experience them.
Our
design studio is
specialised in the creation and manufacture
of paper-made objects. We work with a two-centuries-old material
called "carton-pierre". This
material
was used by craftsmen to create moldings and ornements for palaces or
furnitures. Insprired by this tradition, we developed a
contemporary version of "carton pierre", mostly
composed of
recycled paper.
