Designer Profile: Yann Jallu


Designer Profile: Yann Jallu
While wandering through Maison Objet, I discovered a number of designers that I just adored.  Yann Jallu was one of them.  I find his work elegant, creative and beautiful.  I have included a few here to introduce you to him.

I absolutely adore this writing desk.  It has lots of little geometric slots for your materials - Functional while stylish and sophisticated.  My favourite combination!  I love the natural curve of the desk.  It adds a lovely feminine appeal to it. 


This little cocktail side table is smart and graceful with it’s straw marquetry, and tapered, sabre-style legs.  With it’s oval shape it harkens me back to the early 60’s circa MAD MEN.

Coffee tables don’t always have to only be clunky, functional objects.  Sometimes they can be elegant and refined, and here is an example of that.
This piece is light and sophisticated and would be a happy addition to a living room of the same look.


This console shelf is stunning and unique.  It is fantastically designed piece that adds interest to a space while being functional.

I love discovering new designers to see what they have to offer.  Yann Jallu is a master who understands that an interior requires style and grace.
