Represented in France by Maison Parisienne, a nomad gallery that showcases the talents of contemporary artists in order to highlight their works, support these absolute trades, the deep values that contribute to the rarity of luxury and diffuse their creations in prestigious places, Pierre Renart graduated with honor from the famous Ecole Boule, the reference of applied arts.

Cabinet making according to Pierre Renart

This wood explorer is passionate about the manufacturing process and its transformation. He has already participated in 30 exhibitions in France and abroad by combining traditional know-how and technologies, with an interaction between nature and craftsmanship. The designer-cabinetmaker is now recognized for his curves and the pure lines he gives to this noble material.

Even if he experiments with the fuson methods to fold it or stratify its panels, he also uses composites such as carbon fiber. Amongst his notable projects, he designed the interior of the Studio Harcourt Café, in Paris, decorated the Dior, boutique in Boston, imagined XXL furniture for the 22 Bishopgate, a skyscraper in the City of Londres. A virtuoso to be watched very closely…
