5.5 Designers

Mostly described as a collective, they ended up in the spotlight in 2003, with their Réanim project. It was followed by the Ordinary Objects collection, then Workers/Designers for the Bernardaud Corporate Foundation, and many other signature creations that have contributed to their ascent. Some have described them as the troublemakers of design, while others have labeled them “nerds”, but they define themselves as furniture surgeons. Reconciling artistic design and industrial design: such is the mission of 5.5 designstudio for the next ten years.
