LeLAD EDITIONS
leLAD EDITIONS
At the centre of it all is us, our body, our thoughts, our use and our comfort. At the other end of the spectrum is the material, the emotion of sight and touch. Led by Esther Guyon and Guillaume Terver, leLAD EDITIONS designs furniture with appropriate functions, which take shape according to our needs and are deformed by the place. Small production runs, short production runs, using noble materials that are crafted with respect. In its approach to design and furniture, leLAD EDITION tries to link three fundamental elements: our body, our needs and the place that houses it. Furniture is the result of this complex combination, a collage of spatiality, function, ergonomics and individuality that create emotion.
LeLAD, leLAD EDITIONS and LeLADBRUT are three personalities, three creative signatures who share a coherent and complete ecosystem.
It's the story of Guillaume Terver, founder of Le Laboratoire en Architecture & Design (LeLAD), and the people he meets. With Esther Guyon, they decided to develop a new scale, that of furniture, and created LeLAD EDITIONS, where furniture echoes appropriate functions. Manon Lhommelet, on the other hand, has just returned from a long spell in Japan, where she and Guillaume Terver co-founded LeLADBRUT, an interior architecture agency where meaning meets substance, a reasoned architecture sensitive to traditional craftsmanship. Three signatures, projects of all scales and programmes that respond to and nourish each other. A studio in Brittany, an agency in Paris, projects in France and around the world.
L'ATELIER, the cradle of this ecosystem
In Brittany, a space has been created that brings together the activities of these three partners, and houses a laboratory where the three entities meet, in the direct vicinity of some of the artisans with whom Guillaume Terver, Esther Guyon and Manon Lhommelet collaborate.
