After a project mission in China for an Italian architectural firm, she joined India Mahdavi’s studio in 2011 as an interior designer. For 4 years, she was part of projects such as the Hôtel l’Apogée in Courchevel for the Oetker group and prestigious private residences in Connecticut, Paris, and London, and learned to expect excellence and research creative ventures. Nourished by these experiences and by the project of developing her own creative language, Chloé Nègre opened her own studio in 2015.

Her work is the result of encounters and the story of a place, crafted with bold and precise technical rigor.
