Orée are artisans of emotional technology.
Orée craft memorable technology tools that encourage people to reclaim the lost skills of imagination and contemplation.
Their artisans practice the patient art of crafting matter into meaning. They craft each piece one at a time in their workshop in southern France, using ancient techniques and secrets passed down generations of craftsmen to preserve and enhance the very best properties & aesthetics of the materials used.
Orée was born in early 2012 when technology entrepreneur Julien Salanave met award-winning product designer Franck Fontana. Since then, they have assembled a unique team of talented artisans and engineers to build their own production facility and introduce five unique products that have caught people's imagination around the world.
Orée only use the finest natural materials (premium wood, vegetable tanned leather, Carrare marble...) to give our objects their distinctive halo & soul. We carefully select them for their durability and warm tactile experience. Their minimalist design adorn these materials, by magnifying their timeless elegance and minimizing waste.
