Julien Lagueste's designs blend birch and resin to create one-of-a-kind furnishings.
Young French designer Julien Lagueste at work. “I spent a long time improving my drawings and learning the work of the wood and the resin,” he explains. “I had to invent different techniques that remind me of the transparency and depth of the seabed. We didn’t learn things like that at school.”
Working with birch plywood and resin, Lagueste produces all his commissions by hand at his studio in Nantes. For the base, he cuts rings of wood, then sands and stacks them. The tabletops are created by combining resin with various pigments and applying up to five layers of the resulting mixture until the right balance between transparency and different effects evoking the sea is achieved. The layers take 24 hours to set before the next can be worked into the surface.
