Reinventing the Home: Mobility, Modularity and Sustainability

Isabelle Stanislas

Interior architect & decorator

Isabelle Stanislas studied at the public architecture unit in Paris and the Beaux-Arts school. In 2003, she set up her agency, where she developed artistic concepts, set designs for Hermès and Cartier, apartments and houses in Paris and internationally. In 2015, Isabelle Stanislas began to exhibit regularly at AD Intérieurs and AD Collections. These exhibitions are places for research and innovation. She exhibited at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, the Musée de la Monnaie de Paris, the Ministère des Affaires Étrangères, the Palais D'Iéna, the Hôtel de la Marine, the Musée d'Art Moderne, as well as in Rome at the French Embassy in Italy. She expanded her field of creation to events such as Thomas Erber's cabinet of curiosities and the Salone del Mobile in Milan. She created furniture with the Maison Pouenat, the Nilufar gallery, and the BSL gallery. While continuing her work on Parisian apartments, houses, showrooms, and hotels, alongside her furniture design, Isabelle Stanislas seeks to combine photography, contemporary art, fashion, design, and architecture by breaking the boundaries between these disciplines. In 2018, Isabelle Stanislas redesigned and decorated the reception room of the Elysée Palace following a competition orchestrated by the Mobilier National. In 2021, she published her first monograph with Rizzoli, titled "Designing Space, Drawing Emotions." In 2025, a creative unit dedicated to the research and development of the "Made for Now" modular pavilion project was established.

Architects - Ciguë

Standing at the crossroads between architecture, design and installation, ciguë reactivates archetypes to produce contemporary environments. Our projects are characterized by experimentation, stripped bare aesthetics and radical collage. Home to a team of twenty five based in Montreuil, our workshop is an arena where new spaces and materials are developed. By removing the hierarchy between different scales and dissolving the boundaries between various areas of expertise, ciguë reconciles the way we live in the world with the way we build it.
