Description
Over the past five years, the founder of the multidisciplinary Uchronia studio has brought a touch of whimsy to the world of interior design. The proof is in the pudding: private interiors, restaurants, on-site, dreamlike installations for the Design Week…Through these projects, he has distilled the essence of his unbridled creative spirit through colors that pop, plays with scale, and a hint of psychedelia. As he orchestrates the “What’s New? In Hospitality” space, he reveals his approach to spaces, which is clearly cool and joyful.

Julien Sebban
Founder & President - Uchronia
A multidisciplinary collective more than a classical architecture firm, Uchronia takes its name from the reflection on fictitional and ephemeral time. The studio creates encompassing "places of experience", removing the barriers between technique and creativity. It transforms spaces by offering a complete artistic service ranging from architecture to layout, design and visual identity. Restaurants, apartments or fashion shows, the places designed by Uchronia have a singular and contemporary identity. In 2019, the agency won several major projects, including the renovation of the restaurant at the Museum of Modern Art, as well as that of Galeries Lafayette.
