After 2 years of being housed in numerous different Parisian cultural institutions, the Chutes libres workshops are now located at the Viaduc des Arts. They offer workshops that are open to all and are led by professional designers, carpenters and cabinetmakers. Each participant can make objects using scrap wood recovered by Chutes libres from Parisian artisans and museums. The reused material is then cut up, drilled, assembled and sanded in order to create new objects: stools, shelves, coffee tables, etc. At the end of each workshop, participants go home with the piece of furniture they have created !

Installed here since 1997, the Lorenove boutique is a place for exhibiting carpentry for private customers. Lorenove is sustained on the 85 years of know-how of the Lorillard Group, whose journeymen joiners, who perpetuate their love for good work, are entrusted with carrying out projects ranging from identical reproduction for a historical building to the creation of hitherto unseen models. The 55 arches of the Viaduc de Arts, all unique and made to measure, are one of the projects it worked on.

Created in 1984 and installed in the Viaduc des Arts for 15 years now, Aisthésis is an artistic cabinetmaking firm qualified as a “Living Heritage Company”. Jérôme Cordié materialises his talent here as a creator of contemporary furniture and uses precious materials such as parchment, mica, mother of pearl, horn, bone or even shagreen, which he has made his speciality. His creations are unique items. They are a wise blend of know-how and firmly contemporary lines to which he adds a symbolic dimension.

Hervé offers you quality creations to rationalise your space. He thinks over the best way to make a bookshelf, storage, desk, table, sideboard, bed, in keeping with your needs, your tastes and wishes. He works in wood, either solid or plywood, from rare species, but also with the most innovative materials. The workshop manufactures its items in Paris and pays particular attention to the source of the wood and the use of ecological finishes. “Being a cabinet-maker means having a chance to start every day knowing it will be different to all the others”.

The Cadre d’Or workshop has been making mounting bases and frames for institutions and private individuals since 1979. Our vocation is to enhance works of art and we aim to be contemporary and innovative. Thanks to our mastery of materials such as plexiglass, wood and metal, we can meet a large number of technical requirements (large format, fragile work, non-standard objects) and provide a wide variety of aesthetic solutions (including transparent framing, setting in tin-plated lead, and plexiglass boxes and covers).
