FRANCE
The "Super Sans Plomb" firm is a professional team driven by design, innovation and environmental protection questions. Our business philosophy is to share and unite different areas of expertise which are enabling innovation to form the main springboard for achieving responsible development today. By seeking out aesthetic design and new concepts, our ambition is to combine innovation, sustainable development, industry and brands in a mindset that takes all economic stakeholders into account. In this respect, SUPER SANS PLOMB received the Responsible Sales Outlet AR Award 2010 from the Club Génération Responsable® for the architectural design of Guy Hoquet real estate branches. In 2011, SUPER SANS PLOMB opened a "digital communication and innovation" department. In March 2015 it launched "2CiD": Creation & Community of interest in innovation and Sustainable Development.
Christophe Linconnu is a designer and communicator specialising in the world of luxury and brand identity. He trained at the Duperré School of Applied Arts in Paris. In 2002 he founded the design, communication and architecture firm "Super Sans Plomb”. For 25 years he has been working for prestigious luxury brands in the perfume & cosmetics and wines & spirits industries. He also works on designing and producing innovative showroom designs for French industrial leaders. He draws on all the necessary expertise for producing 360° projects for these showrooms: architecture, communication, information digitisation and design of scenic itineraries and displays for visitors.
Architect José Piquer graduated from Paris-La Villette National School of Architecture in 1986. After receiving the Young Architect Album award from the French Ministry of Culture, he founded the Atelier Piquer twenty-five years ago, in a house in the 20th arrondissement of Paris which he personally elevated. This is a striking studio by the multidisciplinary scope of the professionals it brings together, including visual artists, milliners, graphic designers and audiovisual producers. He is very involved in his neighbourhood, and has contributed to community life through the Charonne Côté Cour community. His work focuses above all on "habitats and workplaces": collective housing with the production of social housing; individual housing with extensions or elevation of houses and interior design. José also devotes time to experimenting with new HQE (high environmental quality) projects and layouts inspired by Feng Shui for different lifestyles. Professionals call on the Atelier Piquer to design workplaces such as office buildings or communication agencies, and to develop sales networks with commercial architecture. Designing cross-disciplinary venues is also something he does, for academics, researchers, artists, crafts people and private individuals to get together, or tourist and cultural points. In 2009, he joined forces with Jean-François Leclerc to found the Cellule Verte ecosystem which, thanks to its multidiscipinary structure, takes a fresh approach to architecture in the light of current ecological requirements. In 2010, he joined the "Super Sans Plomb" team with a view to managing architectural projects.
Laurent Bissel is a marketer and project manager who specialises in marketing fast-moving consumer goods and advertising strategies. He trained at the Sophia Antipolis SKEMA Business School, and joined the design, communication and architecture firm "Super Sans Plomb" in 2006. He has been helping to develop the firm's digital products and business for the past ten years. The applications designed by the firm (website, mobile apps, teaching platforms) are intended for professionals or the general public and meet a variety of end goals, including training, sales and communication for example.
