BLACK LIGHT

Graduates of ENSAAMA, André Fontes and Guillaume Lehoux created the Noir Vif studio in the spring of 2011, between creating publishing objects and innovative industrial projects. For André, this is a reconversion after a career as an engineer in contact with materials and manufacturing processes. Guillaume completed his education with a Master's degree in Innovation at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts et Métiers in 2010. Complementary and convinced that the designer's pleasure is communicative, André and Guillaume elaborate for each project a two-voice narrative fuelled by personal experimentation and encounters. Going against the grain of academic creativity methods, Noir Vif works on relevant and inventive responses to products, objects and scenography.
