PAUL HARDY, ARCHITECT AND DESIGNER BASED IN PANTIN, EXPLORES THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN ARCHITECTURE, VISUAL ART, AND DESIGN.
IN HIS WORKSHOP, PAUL HARDY WORKS WITH MATERIALS REPURPOSED FROM CONSTRUCTION — SUCH AS SAND, PLASTER, WOOD, AND GLASS. HIS CREATIONS EMERGE FROM A CAREFUL RESEARCH INTO FORMS INSPIRED BY NATURE AND MINERALS, EXPLORING THE FUSION BETWEEN ORGANIC AESTHETICS AND DESIGN FUNCTIONALITY.

HIS WORK REVEALS A FASCINATION WITH MINERAL TEXTURES, RESULTING IN CREATIONS THAT GO BEYOND SIMPLE FORM TO EXPRESS EMOTIONAL DEPTH. EACH PIECE BECOMES A VISUAL MAPPING, AN ARTISTIC TESTAMENT TO METICULOUS CHOICES AND THOUGHTFUL REFLECTION, HIGHLIGHTING A CONTINUOUS DIALOGUE BETWEEN HUMANKIND AND ITS ENVIRONMENT.
