Jean-Marie Massaud

Jean-Marie Massaud is a French designer with an extensive experience in furniture, architecture, transport and interior design.

In Massaud’s work, the final drawing is only the visible part of a deeper thought towards reduction and synthesis. Functionality, economy of means and adaptation to the context are hidden behind the lines of its light and essential designs, embedded in a familiar, although always singular, answer. Regardless of scale and industry, he is equally comfortable when he imagines a flying hotel or challenges an historical furniture company.

Jean-Marie has worked with brands such as Lancôme, Dedon, B&B Italia, Cassina and Poltrona Frau. He has won several design awards including a 2015 Red Dot Design Award for Product Design for Massaud Lounge Seating.

Through his different collaborations, Jean-Marie Massaud is paving a way where each project is a further step towards the reunion of pleasure and responsibility.

Massaud’s furniture designs are displayed in design museums in Amsterdam, Chicago, London, Lisbonne, Paris, and Zurich.

Jean-Marie Massaud collaborated with Coalesse to design the Massaud Lounge Seating and Massaud Conference Seating.
