Quelques mots sur le designer Nelson Sepulveda
Nelson Sepulveda is a Chilean-born designer based in Paris, whose work combines ancestral craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetics. His exceptional career began at Nina Ricci, where he honed his mastery of colors, before collaborating with renowned forecaster Li Edelkoort and directing the visionary magazine Bloom.
Building on this international renown, he has lent his talent to prestigious houses such as Hermès, Le Bon Marché, Dosa, and Khadi & Co. A versatile creator, he co-founded Atelier Belart, whose Dadasi stoneware collection received the Discovery Award at the Maison & Objet show and a ELLE Decoration Design Award.
Today, he infuses his humanist approach into Ay Illuminate, where he works closely with Indonesian artisans to design innovative lighting fixtures.
His creations celebrate the human dimension and graphic purity, establishing themselves as cultural bridges between raw materials and luxury design.
