Margaux Keller Collections
Margaux Keller is a designer who believes that design today is no longer confined to a binary system of “functionality and aesthetics”, but that there is a third dimension to the conceptualisation of an object or a space: emotion.
His work is often described as poetic and sensitive, which ties in with his need to make people smile and work on our collective memory, like one of Proust’s madeleines. Elegance, quirkiness and poetry are her three watchwords.
In 2011, she was selected to join the design team at Fabrica, the Benetton Group’s communications research centre, under the artistic direction of Sam Baron. In 2012, Margaux Keller returned to Marseille, her city of origin and heart, to set up her own global design agency. She has developed a wide range of partnerships: Yves Saint Laurent Beauté, Dior Parfums, Roche Bobois, Bibelo Cartier, Made.com, La Redoute Intérieurs, Habitat, etc., and works on numerous global design projects, including space planning, interior and commercial architecture, and scenography for boutiques, restaurants, shops, etc.
In 2019, she created her own brand of objects alongside Anaïs Fretigny, formerly Head of Jewellery Development at Saint Laurent Paris. Margaux Keller Collections, objects and pieces of furniture made by artisans with unrivalled skills.
