ACF - Atelier de créations familières

From the grey skies of the north to the bright sunshine of the south, an artistic destiny took shape. Since 1985, this Provençal land has been the backdrop to my career, the ideal setting for a professional transformation. For three decades, I worked as an insurer, leading an orderly, structured life. Then, in 2014, came a turning point. A colleague, pushing open the door to my office, offered me the opportunity for a new life. I sold my business to embrace a long-buried passion.
Today, settled in my workshop, nestled in the heart of Cogolin on Rue Pisan, I give forgotten objects a second life.
Tourtour, Ramatuelle, Flayosc, Saint-Tropez... My creations have illuminated these picturesque villages.
Each piece is a story, a silent narrative that I bring to life. I hunt for bargains, I recycle, I transform. A parking meter, a relic of a bygone era, is transformed into an elegant lamp. A Vespa handlebar, symbol of Italian freedom, becomes the central element of a sculpture. The grille of a tractor, sturdy and weathered by time, is transformed into a striking light fixture. A coffee grinder, witness to morning rituals, takes on a new dimension.
In my workshop, alchemy takes place. Eclectic objects, remnants of the past, are transformed into unique works of art that evoke emotions. Every detail is carefully considered, every curve is crafted to create perfect harmony. Aesthetics, contemplation and emotion are the guiding principles behind my work. I don't so much create light fixtures as I do diffusers of emotion, bursts of light that revive memories, moments, feelings. Each piece is an invitation to travel, an escape to a poetic horizon steeped in history. Welcome to my universe, a world where light mingles with memory.
