Sophisticated simplicity

Style. An unwavering passion for the profession. And today, as a result of effort and experience, a tendency toward understatement, a desire for simplicity. Daniel Suduca and Thierry Mérillou are paring down their expression to reveal the essence of each décor, focusing on the space and its light, with no preconceptions. The resulting interiors, often for art collector clients, have a fresh modern quality. Signature. Gallery owners as well as designers, they more and more often involve artists in their commissions. “That’s our cultivated side,” they say with a smile. In any case, the partners enjoy supporting other creators, considering artworks a vital and transcendent component of their projects. What’s new. A house on the Basque Coast and another in Portugal, plus a leather goods boutique-workshop and a townhouse in Paris.
