The newsletter of raw materials & delicate inspirations by Laurent PASSE,
creative cabinetmaker in Provence
October 2024
At some point, like an alchemist in search of transformation, I had to burn my wood, subjecting it to this calcination test.
At the heart of the workshop, we patiently explored this technique, perfecting it day after day, until we fully mastered it. Today, it is an integral part of our approach, whether it is creating layouts or pieces of furniture.
Among our creations, I invite you to discover our work around “yakisugi”, and more particularly our latest project, “Point Rouge”: a kitchen made entirely of old burnt wood, enhanced by a natural stone, quartzite.
Laurent,
Red Hot
When you have to design a kitchen for a couple of gallery owners, you have to take the measure of the project. Lines, volume, materials must be balanced between strength, character and delicacy.
Burnt wood and quartzite combine wonderfully to provide a setting for the different works that make up the room.
Showroom
Burnt wood plays an important role in our Beaucaire showroom. It can be visited by appointment! Do not hesitate to notify us of your wish to visit at contact@laurentpasse.com
Burnt wood work
At the Artisans d’Excellence show which will be held from November 7 to 9, at the Hôtel des Italians in Paris, we are invited to present our raw material. Burnt wood will have a large place.
Nearly 50 French workshops exhibit their Materials in an original and exclusive scenography.
If you are in Paris during this period, do not hesitate to come and meet us.
