The studio's food design approach
"I use Food design in a punctual and pragmatic way, where the project requires it in a sensible way. That is, for one or more product accompaniment elements that require special attention, in order to create an even more exclusive atmosphere."

Training followed
"As part of the culmination of my studies, I completed an equivalent to a Bachelor in Food design in 2020 in partnership with CY Cergy University and Duperré Art School."
Words from the founder
Aesthetic recent researches:
On asymmetric, organic and random forms leading to more infinite beauty than geometric, conventional and classic one.
​
Born with the encounter of Oko with Wabi-Sabi Zen philosophy.
​
​
​
TEA BASED RESEARCHES:
​
1. On tea based pastry and cooking with high quality tea leaves and also a well knowed craftmanship.
2. On waste revaluation linked with tea system that leads to recycled infused tea leaves (chagara in japanese).
​
AIM OF CHAGARA'S RESEARCHES:
​
From the intention to pay tribute on tea productor's works as well as integrate a circular economy onto tea field (reflected by japanese "Mottainai" state of mind).
​
PERIMETER OF CHAGARA'S RESEARCHES:
​
In a teashop, it's about reused infused organic tea leaves by oven drying, then reduced in powder or keept it raw.
All of this, for adding textures or coloring elements to a serie of finger pastries. So, we are able to avoid a food waste with a still noble material.
​
The second approach is to bring higher value to client experience tasting by offering a wider sensations for palate.
