Patrick Norguet

After completing his design studies at the ESDI, Patrick Norguet was commissioned to design the display windows of two major players in the luxury industry: Yves Saint‑Laurent and Louis Vuitton. From these experiences, he gained an understanding of brand identity and the way of showcasing it. Designing Renault 's event stands helped him to hone and apply his synthesis skills to ephemeral architectures. He quickly expanded his design vernacular and took interest in technological innovations in the furniture field.

In 2000, his Rainbow Chair, which was noticed and produced by Giulio Cappellini, gave him visibility that quickly spread thanks to the international media. He then opened his studio in Paris. Italian companies immediately noticed his thoroughness and his full commitment to projects. Because of his passion for industrial processes, he adapted his style to excellent know-how, hence optimizing the efficiency of production methods.
