AboutArt & Design
for places.
Moon Above is an interior design house dedicated to art and design. We compose interiors from artworks, designer furniture and chosen objects, for hotels, restaurants, private residences, companies and boutiques.
An interior is not furnished. It is composed.
Artworks and furniture enter into dialogue with the architecture, the identity of the place and the people who live in it. We step in without building work, at the moment a place comes to life: when the furniture, the art and the objects must be chosen.
Photography, painting, sculpture, ceramics and designer pieces: we source them from galleries, artists and partners, from emerging talent to established names.
Composing rather
than furnishing.
Start from the place
Architecture, light, identity and uses guide every choice.
Compose a whole
Artworks and furniture speak to each other from room to room, for a coherent interior.
Consider every detail
Scale, provenance, budget, framing and installation, from the first proposal.
Work with your teams
Alongside your architect, your teams and our production partners.
“In an age of mass-produced, auto-generated content, we stand for what is made by hand: an artwork, a piece of design, a gesture, an emotion. It is this human touch that makes a place unforgettable.”Jean-Baptiste Quesnay, founder
Two paths,
one standard.
Depending on the project, we bring in curators, interior designers and trusted partners, from research to installation.
