Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec are a couple of internationally renowned designers whose furniture and objects are destined for brands such as Vitra, Kvadrat, Magis, Kartell, Axor, Alessi, Issey Miyake and Cappellini. They studied at the National School of Decorative Arts in Paris and at the School of Fine Arts in Cergy Pontoise. Ronan started working alone as soon as he completed his training, and his brother, who had not yet finished his studies, helped him. Since 1999, the two brothers have been running a design studio in Paris, of which they are 50/50 partners. Their scope of work ranges from small consumer objects to architectural projects. In addition to designing household and office furniture, vases, porcelain tableware, jewelry and various accessories for the home, they also work with space and its configuration. It is in this context that "Algues", one of their less conventional products, was born in 2004. The collaboration with Vitra begins with the "Joyn" office furniture system, developed together with Vitra between 2000 and 2002 and constantly evolving ever since. With Jasper Morrison and Hella Jongerius, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec are among the main architects of the Vitra Home, a constantly growing collection. In 2007 they exhibited "Airs de Paris" at the Musée National d'Art Moderne, Centre George Pompidou; and "Nature Design" at the Design Museum in Zurich.
