Cécile et Gabrielle Grimaldi, born in 1980, who trained at the Arts Décoratifs de Strasbourg and the École des Beaux-arts de Saint-Etienne (respectively), founded Grimdesign in 2007. Under this identity, they imagine narrative and poetic objects starting from their observations of everyday life, its unforeseen events and accidents, in a sensitive relationship to materials and production sites. ”Artisan-designers”, their objects are the result of encounters, exchanges and crossroads of know-how.
