Cyprès Sofa

Founded in 2019, Frédéric Imbert studio develops interiors, furniture, and scenography through research into new materials and textures.

With an office in Paris and a workshop in Normandy, Frédéric maintains complete visibility over every stage of a project, from the architecture down to the smallest detail. Also based in Beirut, a key city for his practice, the studio works internationally through collaborations with artisans and galleries including Jag (Paris), Aequo (India) and Chaos in Beirut.

A sculptor of spaces, Frédéric loves having his hands on the material and works with unexpected, local materials. He operates in a measured low-tech way and advocates spontaneity. "Always being in motion allows me a continuous, exuberant approach without worrying about methods and limits." This variety is the starting point of the studio. He develops a logical vision of production with reuse in mind: a respect for time, a constant quest for finesse, and a search for impact that is emotional as much as visual.

Frédéric Imbert draws from the beauty of nature, foliage, rocks, landscape and from the creative arts, from the potter to the goldsmith. His projects are odes to material: the material is the decor; the architecture of a place must be magnified, and the senses stimulated.

For Frédéric Imbert, everything is a collaboration. His work, as soft as it is contrasted, is motivated by a purity of lines and a genuine pursuit of shared knowledge. Behind each piece or project, there is a story born from a deep conversation between what the architecture offers and what the client desires. The studio has worked with Isabel Marant, Lanvin and Jo Malone across residential, hotel, restaurant and cinema projects.

Over more than four years, Frédéric Imbert has built a distinct aesthetic rooted in the decorative arts: an ethical, sustainable luxury defined by sensual organic forms and a sober, confident line.
