10 Questions With\u2026 Designer Anne Dereaux<\/h1>\n\n\n
\n

Anne Dereaux<\/a> could be recognized as the designer who is redefining the essence of freedom. She recently created a furniture collection named Float that realistically represents the illusion of heavy forms in flight and metaphorically defines her creative liberty as an architectural and interior designer. A series of products that defies gravity but not thoroughly, each piece in the collection looks heavy to the sight. Perhaps it\u2019s the radical effect of the thick-stitched leather puffers or the steel frames that make it seem so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s also the designer behind the construction of three-time Grammy-winning artist Victoria Mon\u00e9t\u2019s home, which she\u2019s been working on for two years now. In her practice, Dereaux believes in aesthetics. It\u2019s a model in which she has framed her artistic philosophy, and it\u2019s boldly evident in her designs and the ways she approaches them. She\u2019s keen on geometrical forms, which doesn\u2019t come much of a surprise, especially for an architectural designer in her prime. But it does come as a surprise that she happens to be a musical artist, an art form she tells Interior Design<\/em>, she has heavily relied on, not only sonically but has attached a piece of herself to and it\u2019s internally assisted her in her creative process as an architectural designer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anne Dereaux is also an adept believer in artificial intelligence (AI). She\u2019s also vocal about it and the ways it would shape the future of the architecture and design world. \u201cI see AI as creating a space where the best ideas have the opportunity to shine. It enables ideas to be fully realized without being hindered by limited access to hardware\/software or limited technical skills,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
