WENDY ANDREU
"I designed my pieces for 0.25 in the same way I design furniture and objects. I applied some structural principles and worked from the rules I've created for myself."
"By experimenting with materials, I find surprising outcomes that can be translated into functional design proposals"
Born in 1990 in Oloron-Ste-Marie, France, Wendy Andreu graduated Cum Laude from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2016.
Wendy is a craft designer who aims to communicate through the materials she is using. By experimenting with them, she finds surprising outcomes that can be translated into functional design proposals. Wendy likes to think of the bridges between matter, people and space in an open way. In her research, the context has as much importance as the concept, without forgetting the quality of the making and the aesthetic of the pieces.
Wendy Andreu won the Public Prize of the Accessory competition at the Villa Noailles in Hyères (2017) and won the Dorothy Waxman Textile Prize in New-York City (2017). In 2018, she recieved a grant from the Stimulerings Fund (NL) in order to develop her project Regen. In 2020, she was named one of Rising Talent France during Maison et Objet January edition. She has been part of AD100 France for 4 years in a row.
She is currently working in Paris XIX where she is developing experimental works as well as commissioned projects for public and private clients.
