Christophe Gaubert

Christophe Gaubert is a French product designer who lives and works between France and Asia. He sees his work as a form of language, a way of observing, translating and transmitting ideas and objects, which, beyond an aesthetic, resound with our times. Photography initially played a secondary role, as a tool for staging his works and narrating his objects. Preferring the shade to the limelight, Christophe’s attention gradually moved from his own creations to those of others designers and architects. And because everything around him is a constant source of wonder and inspiration, Christophe developed a more artistic practice in which camera has gradually become a second sketchbook, a way to explore reality and open doors of imagination.
