If Renée Gravel and Jean Ayotte were made of metal, their partnership would form an unprecedented alloy. One has threefold training in design, interior architecture and visual art, and the other has a background in literature: together, they generate a highly original creative process.

Furniture by The Non-Useless Furniture Studio derives first and foremost from function—an invented function not corresponding with any existing furniture but responding wittily to a specific need not yet filled.

This collection presents furniture whose dimensions and forms make it adaptable to any decor. In addition, they are accompanied by specially designed outfits, which can be changed at will to fully integrate the furniture into its environment—or give it a new personality.

These pieces are not for the timid: place one in your environment and it will be a sure topic of conversation for you and your fascinated guests!
