Artelano

Furniture publisher

Artelano is a French furniture publishing house founded by Samuel Coriat, following an initial career in advertising. He initially designed his own furniture alongside Annick Coriat, defined by an already well-asserted design language: simple forms, pure lines, glass, metal, and lacquered wood. From 1987 onwards, Artelano evolved into a true design publisher, guiding designers from conception through to manufacturing. Pascal Mourgue inaugurated this new chapter with the « Atlantique » collection, followed notably by the « Colonnades » bookcase and the « Rio » chair. The catalogue subsequently opened up to an international scene: Paolo Deganello, Carlo Bartoli, Olivier Gagnère—whose seating furnishes the Café Marly at the Louvre—Piero Lissoni, Christophe Pillet, Patricia Urquiola, and Studio Eoos. True to a rigorous and timeless vision, Artelano helped foster an elegant, enduring contemporary French design.
