EMOTION AT YOUR SERVICE
Patrick Norguet creates a surprising new bathroom project for RAK Ceramics: RAK-Valet. A set of visions, designs, exclusive shapes and fast rhythms that lead to unexpected solutions, a hallmark of Norguet's approach to each of his new creations. RAK-Valet epresents all the creative genius of the French designer, combined with the reputation of RAK Ceramics for manufacturing quality and project completion. The collection consists of functional elements, that fully service the bathroom experience: a space that is increasingly the protagonist of every interior design project, residential or contract, a key environment for the harmony and character of each creation, classic or contemporary, but always unique.
Patrick Norguet is an essential figure on the international design scene.
After completing his design studies at the ESDI, Patrick Norguet was commissioned to design the display windows of two major players in the luxury industry: Yves Saint-Laurent and Louis Vuitton. From these experiences, he gained an un- derstanding of brand identity and the way of showcasing it. Designing Renault ‘s event stands helped him to hone and apply his synthesis skills to ephemeral architectures.
In 2000, his Rainbow Chair, noticed and produced by Giulio Cappellini, gave him visibility that quickly spread thanks to the international media. He then opened his studio in Paris. His early furniture collections for Bernhardt, Artifort, Offect, Capdell or the French companies Alki and Tolix validated and established his presence at international shows.
