Designer
Christophe Pillet
I am not looking for the extraordinary, but rather to reveal the beauty and poignancy that lie in the ordinary.
Clarity of expression and a pursuit of simplicity are the key principles underpinning Christophe Pillet’s work. Renowned for his ability to maximise elegance and his consummate mastery of sensuality and refinement, he has become one of the few French designers to achieve international renown, both for the variety and the quality of his creations. Whether in interior design, furniture and product design, art direction or architecture, his style is associated with the world’s leading brands: Lacoste, Christofle, Jean-Claude Jitrois, Louis XIII, Givenchy, Vuarnet, Accor Hotels, Edition Hotels… Whatever he undertakes – from designing a luxury hotel complex to long-term collaborations with Cappellini, Driade, Porro, Ceccotti, Kartell,
Oluce or Holly Hunt – his work exudes an electric chic, distinguished as much by its precision as by its rigour. Many of his projects have earned him prestigious international awards.
