Emmanuel Babled was born in France in 1967. In 1989, at the age of 22, he graduated in industrial design at IED. He made his first experiences in Paris where he immediately distinguished himself for the realization of interior architecture and decoration projects for private homes, working also with some important French companies for the creation of furniture and objects for the home. In 1992, he opened his studio in Milan, Emmanuel Babled Studio, starting to design for several Italian companies. His approach to design is based on the idea that a good project is the result of direct contact with the environment in which it is created. These are the main ingredients that determine the success of his business as a designer. Since 2001 he has been working as a visiting professor with the Domus Academy in Italy and the Design Academy in Eindhoven. In 2006 he was chosen by the European Institute of Design in Milan as director for the master Glass and Venetian Art. In 2011 he moved to Amsterdam and then settled in Lisbon in early 2016 where he currently resides. Here he opened his studio Babled Design Lda where he works with a team and a pan-European production, that collaborate with many European craft districts and leads them to a worldwide visibility promotes craft production towards a world market of international connoisseurs. Driven by anthropological interest and physical presence, it integrates the observation of materials and techniques in their authentic environment linked to social places and conditions.
