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.”
