Darmes dares.

Darmes’ boldness is rooted at the intersection of the expected functionality of a lamp and the introspection elicited by a work of art.

Alex Joncas and Gildas Le Bars founded Darmes in 2016 and established their headquarters in Quebec’s Laurentians. Here, Alex Joncas pushes the boundaries of his personal practice, interweaving the studio’s vision with his exploration of form, simplicity and the integration of a collaborative approach to design. Alongside a team of renowned designers and artisans, Alex and Gildas establish a culture of reciprocity and innovative synergy.

Partners in life as in creation, the designer-manufacturers practice their craft with audacity, honesty and intuition. Their human approach to industrial techniques generates timeless pieces, a testament to their deep respect for materials and their passion for sustainable concepts. In fact, they both promote carbon offsetting for their shipments by favoring 90% local manufacturing.

Darmes’ creative abilities, constant attention to detail and sincere commitment to dialogue have established privileged business relationships both locally and internationally. Uncompromisingly, Darmes continues its ascent in the world of product design, affirming its status as a key player.
