Thomas Boog
Thomas Boog is the designer who is mesmerized by a beautiful creature like shells born in the nature. He graduated from an art college in Switzerland and worked as a top shoe designer for more than a decade at BALLY, CHARLES JOURDAN and others. However, he had had doubts about the hectic design cycle of fashion industry, and about 18 years ago, he started to express his own world with shells which inspired him since childhood.
He uses 200 kinds of shells imported from India, Philippines, Tahiti, French Polynesia, and South Africa. Shells are abalone, razor shells, nautilus shells, etc. Using these various shells, he designs jewelry, different sorts of object displays and furniture. By request from clients' orders, he creates image sketches and chooses appropriate shells for it. And each individual shell is attached to the base object by craftsman. His work possesses a unified color scheme and that accentuates the elegance that shells hold and on top of that, his work is even delicate and modern. He awakens our subconscious feeling by showing the new attractiveness of shells.
Thomas Boog's showroom is located on Bourgogne street in Paris where all the other interior shops, showrooms and galleries exist.
