Patrick Norguet approaches objects and design from a graphical perspective.
Since childhood, he has preferred sketchbooks to textbooks, filling them up with sketches and drawings.
A "hands-on" approach of industry and design studies in Paris (ESDI) mark the unusual profile of this constructive rebel.For Patrick Norguet, design is first and foremost about happy encounters.
What he is most passionate about is exchanging with manufacturers, discovering their know-how; the impulse of a creative intention refined by technical constraints, economic stakes and the expectations of a user whom he hopes to discreetly but durably win over.
Drawing inspiration from everything that surrounds him, Patrick Norguet does not follow trends but seeks to give shape to products whose relevance and modernity would withstand the test of time: "A well-designed object, an object created through generous collaboration is timeless."From consumer products to luxury objects, Patrick Norguet leaves an impression of authenticity and elegance.
He has been working with Zanotta since 2020.
