What izard création does

izard création is a privately held French graphic design studio (SARL) founded in 1983 and headquartered in Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire in the Nantes metropolitan area. Operating under a B2B professional-services model, the studio delivers visual identity, print communications, packaging, exhibition stands and signage, custom illustration, and motion design/video to a horizontal mix of TPE, PME, and grandes entreprises across France. Its named client base spans food and agriculture (LDC, SBV, Volena), construction and building materials (Atlantem, Ubbink, Wirquin, Briand Group), industrial equipment (Fayat, Polysoude), smart home/IoT (Delta Dore, Tikeasy/La Poste), cosmetics (Novéal/L'Oréal), healthcare (ARS, MSD Santé animale), and public/nonprofit institutions (CESER Pays de la Loire, Fondation Croix-Rouge, Adapei/Adapeila).

The studio's service offering is built around six core practices—Identité visuelle, Support print, Packaging, Stand & Signalétique, Illustration, and Vidéo & Motion design—delivered by a small in-house team that uses standard industry design software to produce print-ready and digital deliverables from concept through final production. The firm has evolved from an original print-centric focus into a full-service creative partner, evidenced by recent 2025 work spanning motion design (Omexom product launch), branding (BRIAND Group, Deltavit/CCPA), and exhibition graphics (ATI Industries). Pricing is quote-based (devis) per project, with no publicly disclosed tiers, and revenue is generated through custom professional-services fees scoped to client requirements and complexity.

izard création reaches clients primarily through direct engagement (consultations, briefs, proposals), supported by a content-marketing website (izard-creation.fr), an active Google review profile (5,037 reviews referenced), newsletter, and organic social channels. The firm holds a strategic operational partnership with B17 Communication Nantes for website and digital project delivery and shares office space at 19 rue du Lieutenant Augé. It is independently owned with no disclosed external investment, no parent company, and no institutional funding history; Eric Lemoine is identified as the publication director. The company has been through no public M&A, restructuring, or leadership transitions in the available data.
