What Andrée Putman Studio does

Andrée Putman Studio is a French interior architecture and furniture design house, registered as a SAS (Société par actions simplifiée) with €150,000 of capital and headquartered at 9 bis avenue de Saxe in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. The firm was founded by Andrée Putman (1925–2013) and is now led by her daughter Olivia Putman and creative director Aurélie Laure. It develops bespoke interior architecture projects for private clients, luxury hospitality operators, retail brands, and institutional customers, and operates a portfolio of original furniture and home décor lines plus (Re)Editions drawn from its archive. Notable historical commissions include Morgans Hotel New York (1984), the French Ministry of Culture (1985), Balenciaga boutique (1988), Le Bon Marché escalator (1989), Air France Concorde (1990), the CAPC Musée d'Art Contemporain de Bordeaux (1990), and the Bally boutique (1990).

The studio's product surface spans four collections — seating, tables, lighting, and home décor — produced made-to-order in France with a 12–16 week production cycle. Signature pieces such as the Agenda de Ministre armchair are positioned at the top end of the luxury market (e.g., $11,160 list price). Authentication and provenance are formalised through a Trustplace partnership that issues NFC-enabled digital certificates for each piece. The studio also maintains a licensing programme with luxury houses including Christofle, Lalique, Montblanc, Veuve Clicquot, and Louis Vuitton, providing additional royalty revenue and brand visibility.

The business model blends three streams: direct-to-consumer e-commerce of furniture and décor (multi-currency EUR/USD/GBP, 100% upfront payment, white-glove international delivery); bespoke interior architecture commissions with no disclosed standard fee structure; and licensing royalties from luxury collaborations. Distribution is Paris-based today, with a permanent New York studio scheduled to open at 344 Bowery in May 2026 and a centenary programme anchored at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in December 2025 and Grand Palais Art Paris – French Design 2026. The firm is privately held, with no parent company and no public funding or disclosed financial statements.
