MICHÈLE LAMY
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.”

CASE STUDY
— NEW DANISH NOW
Experimental investigations expressed in biomorphic and primitive forms. New shapes and volumes by design talents.
ARCHITECT MADE
— CASE STUDY
The collaboration between designed spaces and specifically designed objects threads through Danish architectural practice and has resulted in classics created by such renowned architects as Arne Jacobsen, Finn Juhl and Poul Henningsen.
CREATIVE CAST
— PORTFOLIO
Cast architectural models inhabit the fine line between art and architecture. Welcomed into homes as if they are sculptures, these once functional objects exist somewhere between inconclusiveness and completeness, and reach into our unconscious to provoke a multitude of interpretations.
