Jean-Christophe studied the history of art in Rome, where he lived for ten years, absorbing the cultural and architectural richness Italy has to offer.

He continued his training in furniture making in England and in furniture and décor in Switzerland.
He also trained in personal development psychology in London. Jean-Christophe has a strong interest in applying his understanding of how the design and décor of the home can enhance our wellbeing, personal development and support harmony in the relationships within the home.

Craftsmanship
attention to detail.
Nature, in the common sense, refers to essences unchanged by man; space, the air, the river, the leaf. Art is applied to the mixture of his will with the same things, as in a house, a canal, a statue, a picture.
But his operations taken together are so insignificant, a little chipping, baking, patching, and washing, that in an impression so grand as that of the world on the human mind, they do not vary the result.
Undoubtedly we have no questions to ask which are unanswerable. We must trust the perfection of the creation so far, as to believe that whatever curiosity the order of things has awakened in our minds, the order of things can satisfy. Every man’s condition is a solution in hieroglyphic to those inquiries he would put.
