A course by William et Julien (Bold Design)
Based in Paris, William Boujon and Julien Benayoun are two multidisciplinary designers best known for their FDM 3D printing experiments. Together, they cofounded the Bold agency and chose to work only with ethical, environmentally friendly materials.
Over the years, they have worked with Habitat Design Lab, the Centre Pompidou, and the Quincaillerie Moderne. They have also collaborated with other artists such as Emmanuelle Roule and Hors-Studio, and some of their creations have been acquired by the Centre National des Arts Plastiques. Alongside their experiments with machines, they also lead workshops to spread their knowledge on the subject.
