Jean-Marie Massaud

Jean-Marie Massaud leads Studio Massaud in Paris, where design, architecture and industrial production are approached through what the studio calls meaning, essence and quintessence: the purpose of a project, its formalisation, and the life that accompanies it. The aim is to integrate products into “life programmes” that answer the challenges of the present, combining innovative uses, lightness and elegance.

That approach runs from furniture and objects to architecture and mobility. Recent work includes the AOM sofa for Arper, the Ketch and Lexington collections for Poliform, the Goom sofa and Neil chair for MDF Italia, the Louise lamp for Ramun, the Edge tap collection for Axor and outdoor pieces for Dedon, alongside earlier projects such as the Toyota ME.WE concept car and the Volcano stadium for Omnilife.
