    I am a French product designer with over twenty years of experience, I live in Mumbles with my family, a beautiful village in Wales after spending ten years in Hong Kong from 1996 until 2006 where I worked three years for a French watch manufacturer before setting up my own company Bleu Ltd.

    I oversee all aspects of a project from initial sketches, design development, 2D and 3D rendering. I design products in various fields such as consumer electronics, home accessories, mobile devices, connected devices, watches, and transportation, through my experience in Hong Kong, I also help companies looking for a manufacturer in Asia.

    I design products in various fields such as consumer electronics, home accessories, mobile devices, connected devices, watches, and transportation…

    Projects for: Flit bike, LEGO Robotic, Jabra, Acoustic Research, Clim8, Native Union (I helped them to launch their brand through the POP Phone and the BT Curve handsets, both a commercial success), Arwin technology Ltd, Innovative Converged Devices, Milla Poignées, PDC Europe Sleeving Systems, Naeo Ltd, Sonneclair …

    I am working for the last four years on an electric folding bike with Flit, a start-up based in Cambridge, closely working with the engineers to be sure that every detail and shape is optimized for the manufacturing process and to ensure the product is aesthetically beautiful.
