L’Oiseau cork, wood and ceramic Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, 2011

Parents drawn from nature have played a vital role in interior design since the earliest examples known to us, and natural shapes and structures have also been a recurring theme in the work of Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec.
L’Oiseau, an avian figure of archaic simplicity, recalls the artifacts of Nordic folk art. Its sleek shape adds an appealing touch to interior designs, without being cutesy or kitsch.
L’Oiseau is available in maple wood milled and sanded to a smooth finish, ceramic with unique handcrafted characteristics glazed in a selection of colours, or carved from a single block of cork, a lightweight material with a soft and smooth feel.
The cork version is a limited and numbered edition.

Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec

Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, born 1971 and 1976, respectively, in Quimper, France, studied at the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Cergy-Pontoise. Ronan began independent design work immediately after completing his studies, while his brother, who was still in school, assisted him.

Since 1999 both brothers have worked together as joint partners in their own Paris-based design studio. Their work ranges from small utilitarian objects to architectural projects. In addition to the design of domestic and office furniture, vases, porcelain dishware, jewellery and diverse home accessories, a primary focus of their work is the design and organisation of interior space.

One of their most unconventional designs, Algue (2004), was created in this context. The collaboration between the Bouroullec brothers and Vitra began with the office furniture system Joyn, which was developed between 2000 and 2002 and continues to be expanded and refined. Along with Jasper Morrison, Hella Jongerius, and Antonio Citterio, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec have made major contributions to the steadily growing Vitra Home Collection.
