After graduating in Industrial Design in Paris and in England, Julien Carretero continued his studies in the IM Master course at the Design Academy Eindhoven, under the direction of Gijs Bakker (Droog Design). His thesis untitled Theme & Variations explored the border between uniqueness and serial production and gave birth to the To be continued series. Following his graduation, his work was shown at the Droog gallery in Amsterdam.
During and after his studies Julien worked for Maarten Baas for two years. He then set up his own design studio in the Church Pastoor van Ars in Eindhoven and became a member of the design collective Atelierdorp.
His main interest deals with considering the production of objects as a growing process : alive and unpredictable. By creating his own manufacturing processes he aims at bluring the border between serial and handmade production. Julien was awarded the Seb Prize of the Design Parade festival at the Villa Noailles in 2008 (France) and his work is available at Moss (NY) and Fat Galerie (Paris).
