The basic idea behind the Carte Blanche concept, created in 1996, is to invite creative people to express their vision of the ideal workplace, free from any constraints.

concept
Everybody working at the same table whilst having their own individual workspace, this is the concept forged by architect-designer Edouard François with his Love Table. Providing a large, up to 35-metre length table made from multiply with cell-shaped recesses produces a large single shared desk, thereby conceiving of the space as a place which holds the middle ground between an individual desk which is often found to be too isolated and an open space layout which in turn is often experienced as being too noisy and too impersonal. Here it is the furniture piece in itself which organises the space of its own accord as it were.
« My design is an individual open plan office space with individual desks by the same table. »
The urge to create a decompartmentalised, be it nowhere disorganised or particularised space, brought Edouard François to incorporate real cacti into the hole table which he himself refers to as vegetable barbed wire : “The cactus, as a concept of vegetable barbed wire, with a view to creating identity, a sense of private property. It pricks and is conducive to engendering a sense of distance.” Photos: Paul Raftery
