I build products, systems and experiences at the intersection
of human behavior, physical design
and emerging technology.

I don't start from form.
I start from what people actually need, and I follow that question all the way
to the product, the experience
and the brand, built as one system,
from first insight to market,
and toward what comes next.

SkinSave

Innovation · Product & Service · Medical Device

A medical patch giving emergency responders instant access to critical patient data.

Client:
A global Swiss health leader.

Project facts
Duration — 12 months
Budget — approximately €1.5M

Challenge:
Critical medical information is often invisible when emergency care begins.
For people living with rare disorders, the absence of immediate access to diagnosis or treatment protocols can be life-threatening, especially when they cannot communicate.

Solution:
Developed with patients, emergency professionals and caregivers, the project explored how medical information could become visible at the moment care begins.

SkinSafe is a medical patch worn directly on the skin and connected to a secure database. A simple NFC scan gives emergency teams instant access to diagnosis and treatment protocols. If NFC is unavailable, a unique identifier linked to 112 enables dispatch to coordinate the response.

SkinSafe turns medical identification into a discreet, body-worn safety signal.
A solution enabling immediate patient identification and tailored care by emergency responders in any situation.

compose

Innovation · Product & Service · Living Ecosystem

Designing a shared housing model that reconnects people

Client:
Compose, Coliving Factory

Project facts:
Duration — 2 years
Budget — confidential

Challenge: Urban life often leads to isolation, especially during life transitions.
The ambition was to rethink shared housing by balancing autonomy and social connection while imagining a new model for urban living.

Solution:
Over two years, we studied contemporary lifestyles in depth to understand how people live together and navigate the different transitions in their lives.

Through field research and behavioral analysis, we identified several resident profiles and designed the services, spaces and living experience around their needs and daily practices.

Compose was conceived as a complete ecosystem: a housing model, a system of individual and community services, and a living experience designed to support both independence and social connection.

We also defined the vision of the project and coached the leadership team so they could embody and deploy it.

This vision is expressed through a living generative identity system, with a logo evolving alongside the community and the company.

Today Compose has grown into a network of 30 residences and around 500 homes, demonstrating the scalability of a housing ecosystem where space, services and brand are designed as one system.

SOUFFL

Entrepreneurship · Creative Direction · Design Vision

During my studies at the Beaux-Arts and later at the École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (ENSAD) in Paris, I encountered several foundational models: the Bauhaus, which brought disciplines together around the workshop; Design Programmes, founded in France by Roger Tallon; and IDEO, created in the United States by David Kelley, Bill Moggridge and Mike Nuttall.
They all shared the same ambition: to design holistically, from analysis to the emergence of a concept and through to its realization.

With this vision in mind, we founded SOUFFL with my two partners Fabien Fumeron and Arnaud Carrette. The studio was conceived as a global design practice, able to operate from strategy and systems to visible forms and experiences.

Our roots lie in video games and interaction design, disciplines where interfaces, storytelling and emotion merge to create open worlds. Over the years, we expanded that culture to explore how humans, technology and meaning evolve together.

We approached each project with curiosity, empathy and rigor. At the intersection of technology and culture, we cultivated hybrid practices, blending disciplines to bring coherence, value and quality to complex transformations.

The name SOUFFL comes from the French word souffle (“breath”).
Because developing these kinds of projects requires endurance, breath and the ability to maintain direction. This direction is symbolized by the arrow in the logotype, which also represents the alliance between the three founders and their complementary expertise: business, design and technology.

Why without the final “e”?
Because the “e” stands for vision. And vision lies ahead. It is what we build for each project, always projected further forward. The arrow indicates that direction.

Over twelve years, we built a studio of around thirty people and developed a structured and forward-looking design offering, supported by proprietary methodologies, internally developed tools and technologies, and a recognized expertise in France in the design of experiences, identities and design systems.

The studio delivered nearly one hundred projects, ranging from focused initiatives to large-scale transformations. Its work received several design awards and was featured in design publications.

Clients included Chanel, Van Cleef & Arpels, QC Terme, Club Med, Compose, Homsphere, Spitfire, Chabé, BNP Paribas, Arval, AXA Next, Crédit Agricole, Allianz, GMF, Citeo, Suez, Saint-Gobain, Pernod Ricard, Danone, Carrefour, Manutan, Truffaut, Weldom, Hager, Roche, Paris Turf, Orange, Ubisoft, RATP and Adecco.

After twelve years of activity, SOUFFL closed in 2026 following its acquisition by a consulting firm.

This case presents the studio’s service offering and identity.

O.zen

Innovation · Product & Service · Wellness Tech

Transforming a video game into a connected wellness startup.

Client:
Ubisoft

Challenge:
Originally developed by Ubisoft, O.ZEN was an experimental video game designed to introduce cardiac coherence, a breathing-based stress management technique.
However, in its desktop format the experience struggled to reach a broader audience.

The challenge was to rethink O.ZEN as a simple, mobile and accessible solution capable of helping people manage stress in everyday life.

Solution:
Over an 18-month entrepreneurial journey, Souffl reinvented the experience and repositioned O.ZEN as a connected wellness product rather than a game.

The team redesigned the user experience around short breathing sessions accessible anywhere, allowing users to visualize their heart rhythm in real time. A new compact physiological sensor was designed and tested, enabling the experience to connect seamlessly to smartphones and tablets.

Alongside the product, Souffl redefined the positioning, business model and launch strategy, moving from a complex B2B2C approach to a direct-to-consumer model inspired by startup culture.

Presented to major technology actors including Apple, O.ZEN became a proof of concept demonstrating how video game design can create meaningful well-being experiences where breathing connects emotion, data and daily rituals.
