Bruno Moinard is an accomplished artist, working as a designer and interior designer, scenographer, painter and photographer. In 1979, he joined Andrée Putman and Ecart International, before founding his own architectural firm, 4BI, in 1995. His signature style is based on the affectionate integration of French Culture into his projects. For Roche Bobois, he designed the Paris Paname collection. Within one collection, two design languages combine: the first one speaks of volume and wooden textures, and the second is lighter and more geometrically-centered. The result is a cohesive collection that allows the combination of different forms and materials, mixing clean lines with sensual elegance. “I imagined pieces of furniture that you would never get tired of. Pieces that would stand the test of time. I wanted to give character and precision to shapes and materials inspired by the 1950s. I sought to create sensations without too much ostentation. This furniture collection is like a chameleon: it is both classic and modern, without overshadowing the volumes.”
