Background
Born in Paris, he studied in London at East London University and worked for twenty years on numerous hotel projects in Asia, Europe and the Middle East with a strong ecological tropism. His combination of minimalism, elegance and sobriety expressed in curves and noble materials, deep lacquer, bronze, leather, gives a strong sense of luxury to his collection.
Signature
Proud of his French and Algerian culture, his collections resonate perfectly with his architectural work. Inspired by the 20th-century aesthetics, he meticulously designs each piece, favoring textured, rich, and vibrant materials. He has a particular fondness for walnut, alongside bronze, leather, eggshell, and lacquer.
Each variation exudes elegance. The details are refined, the lines gentle, embodying the minimalist spirit synonymous with Reda Amalou’s style.
