Background
Philippe Hurel took over the family company in 1968, providing the spark that ignited a revolution in the workshop: no more 18th and 19th century styles, but ultra-contemporary designs. This break with the past led to the sophisticated brand we know today. Combining traditional craftsmanship with present day aesthetics, Philippe Hurel manufactures exceptional designs for today’s exceptional homes. The company has been granted the label “Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant” – Living Heritage Company, issued by the French Ministry of Culture.
Signature Style
Championing heritage savoir-faire and local expertise, the majority of artisans working in Philippe Hurel’s ateliers evolve there throughout their careers, offering their unmatched expertise in crafting furniture pieces. From woodworking to lacquering, from bronze casting to leatherworking, nowhere else one can find this level of craftsmanship and artistry vital to the creative process, all under one roof. Following the ancient tradition of cabinetmakers, all designs from Philippe Hurel bear the maison’s seal, hot branded onto the structure.
Showstoppers
Over the years, from Gstaad to Caracas, Geneva and Dubai, Maison Philippe Hurel has achieved a sterling reputation with fantastic projects, including private residencies and hotels, encompassing all aspects of interior design. From the first sketch to the finished product, the teams share a common objective: an exact and uncompromising choice of materials and finishes, a mastery of form and ultimately a hymn to beauty and function.
