Patrick E. Naggar

Architect, artist and designer, Patrick Naggar received his diploma in Architecture (DPLG) from the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and a Master degree in Urban Studies from the University of Paris VIII. Naggar considers architecture as a central knowledge, encompassing interior design, furniture and product design, a catalyst of ideas, forms, plastic and artistic research, in order to create spaces and objects for our environment.

Bringing myth and science, ancient and modern cultures, the functional and the symbolic closer together, mixing noble and poor materials, his designs all tell us a story. Patrick Naggar has been showing in France since the mid-eighties, designing collections for Ecart International, Neotu, Tectona and Artelano. He has created numerous architectural and design projects in Europe and the US : prestigious private residences, apartments for art collector, art galleries or restaurants.

He is also present in the collections of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, les Amis du Musée National d’Art Moderne (Pompidou), le Mobilier National in France, the Brooklyn Museum in the US and has been published by numerous European and American magazines including House & Garden, Elle-Decor, Vogue, Maison Française, Beaux-Arts, Progressive Architecture, Intramuros, NY magazine.

Dialogue between Art and Science, blending of cultures and a strong poetic dimension are combined in his work to form an elegant modern language. Naggar was awarded in 2008 the Prix Special du Jury by the Centre du Luxe et de la Creation.
