Yvan Caillaud, the simplified object
"I like when simplifying design offers a maximum number of interpretations and readings. Some people view my Premisse lighting fixture as a bird or a branch of a tree. That’s what I call giving meaning to an item."
Yvan Caillaud has been in charge of his own eponymous studio since 2018 and aims to simplify his subject as much as possible. This simplification affects his approach to materials and his implementation processes. The 27-year-old designer wants to add poetry to the manufactured object and his developping smart concepts based on a in-depth study of industrial processes.
