Geoffrey Dorne

French designer & artist based in Paris –

I studied at the National Superior School of Arts Décoratifs of Paris (ENSAD) –

The École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs was founded in 1766 and occupies a distinguished place in the history of creation, decorative arts, and design in France.

It was officially opened in 1767 by letter patent of King Louis XV. Its goal was to develop arts-related professions and thereby to increase the quality of industrial products. In 1823, it became the École royale de dessin et de mathématiques en faveur des arts mécaniques (the Royal school of drawing and mathematics to promote mechanical arts). Over time, its original goal became more precise and its ambitions better established.
