Shout Beauty

Marie’s artistic process reflects her style and her knowledge of crafstmanship. Her ability is to combine a clear vision of the project with a sensitive creativity. From the shapes to the specific finishes, she pairs attention to detail with style. She believes in the pursuit of aesthetic excellence: creativity is essential and the presence of art is fundamental in her creative process in order to create beautiful objects. To Marie, the most important ability is to have ideas & to know how to bring them reality by having a strong knowledge of the mastery of technique.

The role of art is crucial in the world of watchmaking, looking at the pure aesthetic of each piece. She believes in a bold design which speaks for itself, where watchmaking & art blend into one, like a dreamlike world, fundamental and unique.
