ATELIERS PUZZLE is based in Nantes, a city vibrant with decades of culture and contemporary art. From this changing territory, we apply our experience for projects of various scales, technical levels and contexts.
The wide range of our productions allows us to carry out precise technical studies on all types of works, whether they are integrated into exhibition spaces, atypical sites or urban and outdoor public spaces.
With backgrounds in industrial and structural engineering, architecture and scenography, our multidisciplinary team ensures the feasibility and technical management of each project's production by combining technical precision with artistic sensitivity. We work in various regions in France and abroad, taking care to explore the specific skills and know-how of each region we work in.
Each project is thus supported by a tailor-made team capable of providing solutions adapted to each manufacturing, implementation and sustainability challenge for the most demanding creations.
After gaining five years of professional experience in Marseille and then on Lille 2004, the European Capital of Culture, Grégoire Cartillier worked for ten years in Nantes as technical manager for the contemporary art biennale “Estuaire”, then for “A Journey to Nantes”.
As a state-certified architect (DPLG), he has in-depth knowledge of urban planning issues and helps many artists to set up installations in complex locations. Between 2014 and 2016 he participated as an advisor to the national mission for art and culture in public spaces and regularly acts as an expert on issues of sustainability of works of art in public spaces.
In 2016 Grégoire Cartillier founded the design office Ateliers Puzzle, which specialises in the study and technical production of artistic projects.
