"I designed this third collection during confinement. It was a coincidence that the calendar" thanks "to which I was able to take the time to reflect, then to perfect the drawing of each object that you are going to discover. I would never have believed that the thing that was going to miss me the most was going to be a tree. I dreamed during these 60 days of a large Umbrella Pine: its majesty, its curves, the deep green of its thorns, its bewitching scent. The first thing I did. When the confinement was lifted, it was to return to the house of my childhood, rue des Grands Pins in the Var region.

The house is no longer there, but they are still there. This 03 series is an invitation to contemplation, a tribute to this tree so emblematic of an art of living in the south of France. Find your pine tree, look at its summit which offer itself in the sun, breathe in at the foot of its trunk with golden bark ... so many memories are revealed in the pine forest.
The design shows what is no longer visible. "
