NICOLASDUCHATEAU

Son of hotelier, I grew up in our hotel's construction sites, which started during every winter hiatus. Each year we needed to renovate a floor, a bedroom, work on masonry and carpentry. As far as I can remember, I have held a tool in hand or a pencil between my fingers. When you run a family business, you start work when you are still in high school... With this in mind, I took up the torch and started running the family business, without questioning myself in the slightest. Over the years, I spent more and more time over the winters sketching, drawing, renovating. Architecture and design always spoke to me. Carpentry, painting, masonry, I became a jack-of-all-trades.
