Aurélien Barbry
Industrial and interior Designer, 1969
Aurelién Barbry graduated with Honor from Ecole Camondo Paris as an industrial and interior designer. He started his career by working with famous architect Jean Nouvel.
Since then Aurélien Barbry has worked on many different interior and design projects, his clients include Georg Jensen, COR, Menu, Normann Copenhagen and ENO among others.
Today, he is based in Copenhagen where he continues to work on challenging design. Barbry's first product for Le Klint was La Cloche, a beautiful bell-shaped lamp folded by dexterous "pleating ladies".
Aurélien Barbry har designet lampeserien Cahcé, som på fransk betyder skjult, og det er netop symbolikken for den næsten skjulte håndfoldede skærm, der på smukkeste vis er integreret i lampen, og som giver den helt særlige karakter der er forbundet med en klassisk Le Klint-lampe. With this design the french designer Aurélien Barbry adds a new classic design to Le Klints lamp collection.
In 2014 Aurélien Barbry designed Caché which in French means hidden. This is beautifully symbolized by the almost hidden hand-folded lampshade, that has been elegantly integrated to reveal the unique DNA of a classic Le Klint lamp.
Aurélien Barbry is very delighted to have found a new yet subtle way to reference Le Klints beautiful pleating and not pollute the DNA.
