What I like about Aurélie, is that she loves objects that tell a story, from which the design seems logical.

AZ & MUT, who’s that? The name speaks to me; I’m at ‘Merci’ when I discovered this new identity, which is without a doubt an up and coming Cocotte.

These two curious designers, Rafael David and Geraldine Hetzel, have an atypical life path and met on the banks at the School of Industrial Design - Strate College Designer. To their credit, they have a career full in business far from what they offer today!

These cool, contemporary photo albums caught my eye as a great gift idea! Designed by Boston, Massachusetts, based designer, Debra Folz, the Whole Story photo albums offer a great unconventional design which encourages us to develop all those photos stored on our hard drives!

Summer never ends at Cocotte Design and we are happy to be back to launch yet another Cocotte to follow: Margaux Keller, our up and coming star designer in Marseille. While sipping a glass of rosé in a café while watching the sun set, I chose the perfect setting to tell you all about Margaux’s career path:

Vivian Chiu, a recent graduate in furniture design from Rhode Island School of Design, initially captivated my attention with her Inception Chair.  A chair that is a chair within a chair, within a chair, and so on until no more chairs will fit.  There are a total of ten chairs that can be taken apart.  I loved this simple and interesting design so much I had to see more! I went to her website and found yet another amazing piece called the pixel chair. I’m fascinated by the repetition and puzzle-like qualities and wanted to learn more about Vivian.  Luckily she granted us this interview where she explains in detail her thought process.
