Sabourin Costes is a Paris-based product and furniture design studio founded by Paola Sabourin and Zoé Costes. Their practice begins with close observation: the way a material catches light, a new forming technique for resin, a cabinet handle reduced to its simplest shape. Small details become starting points for collections that move in unexpected directions.

Process is central to how the studio works. Ideas develop through hands-on experimentation and direct collaboration with local artisans in France. That proximity to making shapes the outcome: decisions taken at the workbench replace decisions taken on screen, and each collection develops its own logic through production rather than from a predetermined concept. The result consistently surprises even those making it.

The aesthetic is confident and material-forward. Sabourin Costes pieces are bold in colour and physical presence, built for spaces that can hold them. Resin runs through much of their output, explored past its conventional applications in furniture and product design. The studio treats it not as a stylistic signature but as a medium with unresolved potential, capable of carrying depth, warmth, and reflected light in ways still worth discovering. That approach places their work firmly within the collectible design furniture category: objects with clear authorial identity, built to last and to be recognised.

Their work is available on Monde Singulier alongside other emerging and established French furniture designers.
