CREATIVE PARTNER, POETIC FORCE
PORTRAIT
More than a muse to husband Rick Owens, Michèle Lamy breathes life into their furniture creations. In her Paris-based atelier she talks about how her creativity is fuelled by emotion or seduction and that the designs are all about materials, noble or otherwise.
“THE CORE CONCEPT IS TO TAKE A CHEAP MATERIAL LIKE PLYWOOD, THEN WORK WITH IT AS IF IT WAS EBONY.”

— HALLERÖD HOUSE
On the island of Blidö in the Swedish archipelago, Halleroed founders, Christian and Ruxandra Halleröd, found the freedom to design for pleasure within a forest of fir, pine and juniper trees.
