A graduate of Strate École de Design, Adrien Carvès joined the Habitat Design Studio in 2015. Working alongside Habitat's artistic director, he has shaped many of the brand's recent seating ranges, translating themes from Art Deco curves to warm, tactile materials into finished pieces.
His approach pairs clean, pared-back lines with an enveloping sense of comfort, with close attention to detail and equal weight given to material and form.
His best-known design, the Cajou armchair, reworks the classic cabriolet chair in velvet and black metal, creating a cocoon-like silhouette that balances sensuality and minimalism. He also designed Sacha, an asymmetric oak cabinet that plays light and dark veneers against open and closed storage.
