An artist, a design studio and a workshop: a single point of contact

Marc Blume, a sculptor registered with the Maison des Artistes, landscape architect and engineer, designs each work in response to its site, history and intended use. He is supported by a team of carpenters, joiners, welders, architects and landscape architects, brought together as required for each project. The design studio and the workshop in Pantin develop the artwork, manufacture it and install it.

What we cover

  • analysis of the site and the brief, the artistic proposal;
  • finding the best solution: materials, joints, installation, durability and maintenance;
  • technical studies, working drawings, prototypes;
  • manufacture in the workshop, transport and installation;
  • insurance cover: professional indemnity and ten-year liability.

For which projects

Public and private commissions, permanent or temporary works, landscape sculptures, artists’ gardens, and furniture as art. We can also bid as a team with an artist or a design firm.

Le 3ᵉ train, Garden of Peace at the Clairière de l’Armistice (European Garden Award 2021); Les racines du futur (LUGA 2025, Luxembourg); Tra i petri (Ajaccio Citadel).
