During Paris Déco Off 2024, Anne Corbière partnered with two renowned design houses, Ochre Gallery and Alexander Lamont. For Ochre Gallery, she designed the exclusive Cloud Shade lamp, a masterpiece that harmoniously merges richness and delicacy with simplicity and refinement. Her innovative use of long-fiber linen, Italian silk, and white gold creates a subtle texture that imbues the lamp with vibrancy, showcased in a unique interplay of movement and light. Every detail of this design was meticulously developed in her Haut-Anjou atelier, where she collaborates with talented weavers. The lamp epitomizes timeless elegance, further accentuated by the delicate shimmer of white gold that adds a touch of luxury.

In collaboration with Alexander Lamont, Corbière unveiled a special edition of the Paglia collection, a series of sculptural lamps celebrating craftsmanship and natural materials. For this project, she designed the exclusive "Kita" lampshade, crafted from rattan, linen, and metallic threads. The shade complements and softens the monumental presence of the Paglia lamp base. These lamps showcase Corbière’s skill in transforming natural materials innovatively. The textured, dark surfaces capture light in an intriguing way, and each piece is handcrafted, exemplifying Corbière’s commitment to artisanal perfection.
