Avant-garde contemporary design... The PM Salt & Pepper mill collection is a series of hybrid objects that bring together two worlds, both graphic and functional. Open to aesthetic and formal experimentation, the young French artist Thomas Defour attaches great importance to curves and drawing, which he explores with new tools for each new project.

Veritable domestic totems, these mills feature geometric silhouettes in Natural wood with flashy color accents. Balanced, uncluttered shapes give this collection an incredibly graphic look.

The turned wood body is paired with a machined aluminum head, borrowing a formal language usually used by engineering or sporting equipment.

PM Série" salt/pepper pots are handcrafted in France. They feature a high-performance Ceramic mechanism. They make an elegant transition from the kitchen to the Table.

Thomas Defour: This era is very inspiring for our generation. It's a period when manufacturers followed the radical ideas of young designers. The result was objects that were more desirable, and not just functional. It's this way of producing unusual yet rational forms that drives me. ''

Halfway between sculpture and craft, Thomas Defour's practice has developed in a fusion of two methods, Plastic and Wall light, around solar influences.

French publisher 13Desserts takes a radical approach to design, seeking a balance between artistic freedom, mass production and collectability. With an emphasis on experimentation, this emerging design label explores new avenues of production, combining industrial processes and artisanal know-how. Decomplexed by the codes and trends that govern the market, the young guard of French design expresses itself freely, offering a selection of radically singular pieces.
