Formel is a contemporary design studio and manufacturer based in Paris. Beginning in 2018 as a collaboration between industrial designer Timothée Concaret and cabinet maker Nicolas Mérigout, the office was officially founded in 2019, after winning the first prize of the 12th edition of Cinna / Ligne Roset competition with their lamp Luce. Their aim is to reconcile industry and crafts by bringing evident and ethical objects into homes.
Their complementary skills make them able to work on every aspect of a design project, from drawings to self-production. As designers, their approach is rational yet sensible. They create simple and timeless products that improve daily life. In addition, as makers, their passion for details leads them to make each part visible, as a tribute to how things are made.
They work with a wide variety of clients, making no distinction between furniture, lighting and accessories. They also produced their own furniture collection, designed and made by hand in their workshop near Paris.
