Trained as a painter at Central Saint Martins, he began creating experimental furniture in 2012, developing a distinctive body of work that combines sculptural expression with functional craftsmanship.
“I really appreciate the rift table for its use of material. The structural details follow such a simple logic that the materials can really speak effectively.”
“Whats not to love about Benoit Viaenes organic approach? The pieces feel like product of the heart. That’s a pretty rare thing.”
“I am a huge fan of silver and the lamps by Ohla Studio really let the material speak for itself.”
