Transprofil Collection urbaine et minimaliste de mobilier contemporain, les créations Transprofil sont simples et énergiques, basées sur des formes pures et une grande finesse d’exécution. Les matériaux - en nombre volontairement limité - sont sélectionnés pour leurs qualités techniques, esthétiques et pour les performances qu’ils permettent d’obtenir en les travaillant aux limites de leur résistance. Le design Transprofil est un design fonctionnel qui sait aussi nous procurer des sensations nouvelles et inhabituelles : le vertige, l’équilibre et l’humour.

Philippe Stouvenot Un esprit éclectique qui se frotte très tôt à la matière. De maçon, il devient architecte puis designer. Chronologie inversée : il passe des réalisations de grands volumes à la conception d’objets du quotidien. Berlin, Bangkok, Atlanta, Paris puis Tokyo, la force des lieux et l’immensité des champs culturels vont stimuler sa créativité. Sa production cristallise ses réflexions qui oscillent entre minimal et spatial, pureté des formes et mémoire de la matière.

Transprofil is an urban and minimalist collection of contemporary furniture -- simple and conveying a sense of beautiful energy, the artefacts' design is based on pure shapes and is finely executed. The materials, which are deliberately in small number, are selected for their own technical and aesthetic qualities, and the results they give when they are worked upon till the limits of their resistance. Transprofil is a design that combines functionality and uncommon sensations: it simultaneously conveys ideas of vertigo, balance and humor.

Philippe Stouvenot has an eclectic mind. He confronted himself very early to different materials. Initially working as a bricklayer, he then became an architect before focusing on design. His career seems to go in reverse to what is commonly known: he first conceived big scale works and then switched to making furniture for our everyday needs. Berlin, Bangkok, Atlanta, Paris and currently Tokyo - all these places he has lived in, each one unique - have stimulated and strengthened his creativity, because of their own specific contexts and energies. His production focuses on a mindscape located in-between minimalism, spatiality, and pureness of the forms and memory of the materials.
