SPECIAL NOTE
Ronan Bouroullec, born in 1971 in Quimper (Brittany), is a French designer known for collaborations with some of the most important international companies. His career began at the age of 18, exhibiting at the Salon du Meuble in Paris, leading to a collaboration with Giulio Cappellini and winning the Grand Prix Du Design. In 1998, he joined his brother Erwan—still a
student—and together, they received international recognition, including the New Designer Award in 1999.
Their projects range from craftsmanship to mass production and are displayed in the permanent collections of some of the world’s most important museums. Their collaboration earned them numerous awards, including the Compasso d’Oro in 2011
and the London Design Medal in 2014. After almost three decades of joint work, creating design icons found in places like the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Design Museum in London, and the Museum of Modern Art,
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec decide to pursue
individual careers.
In 2023, to mark this change of direction, Phaidon published Ronan Bouroullec: Day After Day, covering ten years of Ronan Bouroullec’s prolific career. Just a year later, the Centre Pompidou dedicates an exhibition curated by Marie-Ange Brayer to honour the “resonance” of the French designer in the international artistic panorama.
