Background

Pierre Constant, the founder of his eponymous Atelier specialized in interior architecture, thereby gaining a profound understanding of the fundamental principles behind creating functional and aesthetic interiors. Pierre further demonstrated his commitment to excellence by earning a master’s degree in design research and development. This advanced training enhanced his ability to innovate in the design process, incorporating in-depth research into the development of new products and contributing to Atelier Constant’s distinctive vision. The combination of this academic expertise and a passion for mid-century craftsmanship and design forms the foundation of Atelier Constant, resulting in unique furniture pieces that embody both contemporary aesthetics and timeless heritage

Signature Style

Atelier Constant shows a fascination for French and Dutch crafts from the interwar period, backed by personal expertise in interior design. The studio aims to express art through domestic objects, adopting a design approach that respects the heritage and practices from these two countries.  

Showstoppers

One of Atelier Constant’s iconic pieces is undoubtedly a small bronze table lamp called “Lampe de Traverse”. This lighting fixture stands out due to its sculptural nature, meticulously crafted to evoke a harmony between art and functionality. Made using the ancient technique of lost wax casting, each detail of the lamp is worked from a negative mold, imparting each piece with artistic uniqueness. The use of bronze brings timeless quality, while the manipulation of wax gives rise to organic forms that, when illuminated, project intricate shadow compositions. This lamp perfectly embodies Atelier Constant’s philosophy by merging respect for traditional crafts with a contemporary vision, offering a piece that transcends the boundaries between utilitarian object and work of art.
