Big Mamma
We teamed up with Big Mamma, an Italian restaurants concept in Paris, to redesign their online presence. Created in 2014 in Paris, Big Mamma evokes the generosity, humor and simplicity of Italian gastronomy. Like the Mamma, the restaurants are welcoming and cozy "places of life", where guests can discover the essence of Italian cuisine. An authentic Italian experience created with only Italian sourced product, but also with a friendly and fun Italian crew.
Together with Big Mamma team we worked on their brand, content production and interactive experience. The new website offers an immersive journey through a playful and tasty brand story-telling combining bespoke video production, animated layouts and funny interactive modules.

Designing an alternative search engine
In 2014, I was approached by Qwant, a french start-up building a secure and safe search engine to work as a design consultant on their global redesign and branding. Our on-going collaboration was an inspiring journey through various design challenges, which are detailed in this article, tracing the evolution of the product over the past two years.
LVMH Insights
I recently published a new case study for the LVMH "Insights" project available on Behance.
LVMH codename "Insights" magazine was born from the ambition to create a digital publication dedicated to the corporate communication of the group. Together with Octave & Octave, we created a digital publishing platform that works seamlessly across all popular digital devices, and enables LVMH to publish a variety of editorial content to a broader audience.
LVMH (Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE, better known as LVMH), is a French multinational luxury goods conglomerate, headquartered in Paris, France. The company was formed by the 1987 merger of fashion house Louis Vuitton with Moet Hennessy. It controls around 60 subsidiaries that each manage a small number of prestigious brands.

Art foundation identity & type
A sneak peak of some identity research work commissioned for an art foundation. Sponsored by one of the most famous french jewelry house, this brand exploration aimed to create a visual identity for the art foundation of the brand.
The logo uses characters from a dedicated type designed to represent physical light reflection, a distinctive theme of the jewelry crafting. The metaphor of light reflection creates a visual identifier for the art sponsorship, connected with their original logo, creating a new symbol representing the brand values of elegance, crafstmanship and artistic influences.
