After working during several years on very prestigious projects, as a trained architect, Xavier Lavergne has branched out to turn towards the creation of unique furniture pieces. In his Parisian showroom, he is showcasing a new collection of coffee tables resulting from long time research, daring experimentations and minute finishing touches.

With the help of a tinsmith master, he imagines unusual pieces to dress up his creations which he qualifies as « alive ». Hand-made, his furniture, high boys and consoles are in turn decked out with pewter, copper chips, bronze, brass or aluminium, but also Murano glass whose organic traces seem to have been swallowed up in order to feature cosmic reflections.

The privilege of a limited edition

In transparent or coloured resin, through his hands each object becomes as smooth as marble. It reveals itself as a gem from which emanates a subtle poetry with playful volumes of shadow and light. Invite them inside your interiors, their originality will immediately make them furniture pieces of exception…
