Pierre Lapeyronnie (1982)

Pierre Lapeyronnie is a Paris-based artist and designer whose fascination with resonances, waves and silences led him to explore the potential of sound as a material while studying at the Institute of Fine Arts. His interest in both sonic and spatial volume has shaped his career ever since, and today he works with wood, stone, steel, ceramic, plaster and bronze to create unique, sculptural pieces that reflect his radical, constructivist approach to art and design. The functionality of his work is essential to him, but his quest goes beyond this; each piece he creates is intended to become part of an environment, to become (through reflections or voids) as interconnected with its physical context as a sound is. Balance is vital to him, both conceptually and on a formal level, and the structural strength and purity of his work encapsulates this guiding principle.

In 2022 his Huchet table lamp was acquired by the Mobilier National. His work has been exhibited at events including PAD Paris, Paris Design Week, IMM koln and Maison et Objet.
