Sam BARON
Born in France, Sam Baron is a graduate of the École des Beaux-Arts de Saint-Étienne and holds a post-graduate diploma from the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.
By anchoring his creations in functional and artistic research, without omitting cultural and historical narratives, Sam Baron positions his gaze in our everyday life and its contemporaneity through rereadings and reinterpretations of artisanal or industrial know-how.
He works as a designer for brands such as Louis Vuitton, La Redoute, Vista Alegre, Petite Friture and Hennessy, and for ten years was creative director of the design department at Fabrica, the international communications research center based in Italy. His work is represented abroad by galleries C. Grajales (USA), Nilufar (It), Mint (UK) and is included in the collections of museums such as the Cooper Hewitt Museum, New York / Gardiner Museum, Toronto / Mudam, Art Modern Museum of Grand-Duc Jean, Luxembourg / Centre G. Pompidou / Grand Hornu art & design Museum (Belgium), Triennale Milano (It) / V&A (London) / Stiftung Stadtmuseum, Berlin / Kópavogur Art Museum, Iceland...
In 2009, he received the Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris in the confirmed designer section, and in 2010 was named by Philipe Starck as one of the most important designers of the decade.
Sam Baron divides his time between Portugal and France, where he took part in the Thinkers & Doers think-tank.
