MEET
THE FOUNDER

I founded Studio Calcaire [pronounced “kal-kɛr”] upon moving to Dubai, driven by a simple yet enduring desire: to build a practice where transparency, expertise, and aesthetic sensibility coexist seamlessly.

The name Calcaire, a French word meaning limestone, pays homage to one of the most emblematic natural stones of France, the very material that shaped Parisian façades and Mediterranean light.

I built my career within the world of high-end real estate in Paris (France). I began at a leading French developer, where I learned the foundations of architecture, project execution, and the art of bringing a vision to life. Later, as a luxury realtor, I had the privilege of guiding some of the city’s most exceptional property transactions. Working alongside remarkable architects, designers, and artisans refined my eye for proportion, precision, and enduring beauty.

Through Studio Calcaire and The Calcaire Collection, I strive to bring a fragment of French soul to Dubai: that balance between warmth, rigor, and elegance that transforms a space into a home.
