Yann Mirada

Yann Mirada is a French designer born in 1988. Photographer by profession, he chooses to take an interest in the object. The desire to create tangible work guides him through this conversion to another mode of expression.

The interactions with his sponsors inspires him. Thus, each object bears the name of its patron.
Close to a contemporary craftsmanship, he produces each piece by hand and strives to use local and renewable materials. His inspirations are numerous: Carlo Mollino, Jean Prouvé, Hans Wegner, etc. Yann is a self-taught designer who insufflates to his pieces - automatically - sober lines and rusticity of materials.

The materials he uses recall his attachment to the land and the savage due to his relationship with the subjects in his images. Here, the softness and nobility of wood respond to the warmth of wool, and the hardness of metal or glass. The solid and often dense materials take turns between balance and lightness.
