His work revolves around three fundamental axes: tension, lightness and simplicity. These three notions guide the research, the experimentation, the creation and the manufacturing of all the products in Alexandre's catalog.
They also give a structure and a common base to each object imagined and created by him.
The search for a taut but fluid line guides the designer's work, which is enhanced by contrasting colors. Simplicity, in its most positive sense, gives the object a form of obviousness. Obviousness of function and use, of the perfect line, and feeling.
For the universe created here is imbued with a familiar poetry: we are not faced with objects that confuse or disturb us. They come rather to consolidate our interior world, and call upon a memory of timeless forms.
All furniture is made to order and made to measure. In line with its natural inspirations, all raw materials come from the Hauts-de-France and are used in a reasoned approach. Oak, ash and sycamore are carefully selected directly to the saw mill.
A keen cyclist, Alexandre Labruyère has traveled to many places whose natural landscapes have left their mark on him, and now serve as inspiration for his creations.
