Le Cann

Raphaëlle Robert and Guillaume Fantin, both designers and interior architects, have joined forces to create Le Cann studio. The two met at École Bleue and later honed their craft and aesthetic vision designing commercial, retail and residential spaces for Parisian design firms: she at Marie Deroudilhe and Thierry Lemaire, him at Andrée Putman and Joseph Dirand. Raphaëlle and Guillaume's passion for drawing is reflected in their work : playing with clean lines and light to accentuate space and create volume. Following the design tradition of the 1930s, the attention to detail in their drawings allows them harmonize even the smallest objects withing a space and to call attention to different textures and craftsmanship. Because they believe simplicity is timeless, Guillaume and Raphaëlle create minimalist atmospheres which they balance and energize with references to design and architectural history but also to fine and audiovisual arts. By creating a dialogue between different artistic mediums and eras, Le Cann brings warmth and emotion to its understated designs. Crédit Photo: Alice Mesguich
