Yellen Boisseau

Yellen Boisseau graduated from the Penninghen School of Interior Architecture in Paris in 2021. She has since maintained a practice split between Paris and Barcelona, taking residential commissions in high-end interiors while developing furniture and objects in parallel.

At Penninghen, she trained under a programme that treats interior architecture as fundamentally spatial. That discipline runs through her furniture work. A chair or table is resolved the way a room is resolved: from the structural logic outward, with material choice following function rather than preceding it.

Natural materials are non-negotiable in her practice. Wood, stone, and textile each impose their own constraints, and she works within them. The aesthetic that results reads as direct — specific to the object rather than borrowed from a style.

At Paris Design Week Factory 2025, Boisseau presented her debut furniture collection. The response confirmed what her residential commissions had suggested: a formal clarity and material sensibility that held up against more experienced designers. For a first furniture collection, the identity was settled in a way that usually takes years to arrive at.

Her residential studio remains active in Paris and Barcelona. Her current furniture work is available on Monde Singulier.
