Workshop

François Devineau creates his scenic workshop in 1985.

Initially working with the public theatre, François Devineau rapidly took part in the buzzing cultural wave of the 1980s’, culminating in 1989 with the spectacular ceremonies of French Revolution’s bicentenary.

In the nineties,

Devineau’s workshop enters the fashion industry and widens its skills with the creation of sets for some of the most prestigious Houses shows and boutiques. 
Thanks to our serious and vast experience, we offer our services to the show and events’ industry; including sceneries for the theatre and the opera, fashion shows, shop windows, events and artistic setting-up.
