  • Victoria Wilmotte was born 1985 in Paris, where she studied interior design. She later earned her master’s degree in product design at the Royal College of Art in London.

    After graduating, she returned to her home town of Paris in 2008 and opened her first design studio, where she created designs for the Tools Gallery in Paris and works for her first solo show in 2009 in the Brussels Gallery Pierre Bergé et Associés.

    Wilmotte’s special design process can be compared to that of a sculptor: she weights volumes and empty spaces, removes the material until she finds a perfect angle or ideal curve, and polishes the surfaces to the point when they precisely achieve the structure, haptics and light refraction she seeks.

    Recently, she collaborated with a stone manufacturer to create a collection of furniture and objects. She also worked for the online furniture shop: Made in Design; Philips de Pury, Poliform. She has dealt with clients on customized projects. Beyond the design as a professional discipline, Victoria is addicted to shapes, subtly chiseled geometry, and carving materials. She deals with creation like a sculptor: sizing up the empty and the full, cutting the object up to the perfect angle or the imperceptible round, and polishing the surfaces until the desired texture is achieved.
