Developed during the pandemic, the Micro-Cabine project is a small-scale cottage that takes into account its ecological footprint, blending strategies of scale and prefabrication to provide architectural thinking and resource-saving construction methods when designing living spaces in nature.
The Bouquet handbag brand is known for its colors and my artistic world — including my personal style — and that plays a role too. We thought the more minimalist, even contemporary approach of APPAREIL Architecture would be the perfect match for our desire to bring color into the design, and that’s exactly what we got as a final result. APPAREIL pushed us to visualize the space and its flow in a completely different way from what we had initially imagined. Now, we couldn’t picture it any other way.”
