FÉLIX CARRIÈRE
Cabinetmaker
His vision : He is attached to detail, matter is at the center of his work. His curiosity let him experiment and dare.
His totem animal : the bear, a large body that moves with inertia but does not lack cunning to achieve its ends.
He likes : Aubrac’s rib of beef and fresh air.
He doesn’t like : procrastinating without finding a solution.
He is : Come from Aveyron, persevering and… come from Aveyron.
THEIR MEET
It is around a board of wood but especially of cold meats that these two met in 2014. The energy of one and the phlegm of the other are in balance, the characters and sensibilities of these two young people confront each other to give rise to ideas resolutely turned towards the human. A ritual, a detail, an assembly, a material, a veining are all sources of inspiration for their creativity. Their project is to arouse emotion and to listen to usage in order to propose qualitative work. HELIOS is inspired by images from everyday life, architecture, cinema, dance, children, the street… These cabinetmakers feed off what surrounds them to create and shape their furniture. An apparent simplicity that hides in reality a deep reflection on ergonomics and the balance between materials, colors and textures.
