Bio

Being both designers and craftswomen, Audrey Werthle and Eloïse Maës - founders of La Gadoue - like to build things by hand in order to stay away from predictable industrial norms. However, it is not so innocent nowadays to bring new objects into the market. They therefore decided to create from what is already existing. They collect, transform and reuse textiles, which were envisaged as rubbish. Through a complex process of cutting, dyeing and assembling the left-over fabrics, La Gadoue turns them into unique creations. The endless shades of colours are driving their designs, whether they be organic or more geometrical. 
The duo also produces made-to-measure curtains, tapestries and installations. The second part of their activity is the practice of designing ceramics, which are applied mostly to murals and lighting.
