CONTEMPORARY BOOK BINDING
Make your notebook
French craftsmanship of choice, the contemporary book binding will allow you to shape your hand-stitched notebook in A5 or A6 format. For yourself or to offer, you will choose your cover as well as the paper (kraft, laid, canson, dots, etc.).
Learn to glue the covers and sew your notebook using the Coptic or Crisscross technique, it takes about 3 hours to make a notebook.
For the youngest (under 10 years old) and those in a hurry, a soft-cover notebook is available.
LATIN CALLIGRAPHY
The art of writing beautiful letters
Latin calligraphy is your host specialty!
With nearly 10 different styles available, with nibs, brush pens or brushes, you will have the choice.
Here we prefer it traditional and with a mettalic nib, but you can even practice it with a pyrographer!
Learn this ancestral art, or more simply improve your daily handwriting, for a discovery or a regular practice.
LINOCUT!
Engraving and printing made easy
Linocut allows you to engrave a pattern on a soft surface in order to create a mould. From this mould, it will be possible to print several copies of your work.
The course will begin with a work of drawing which will have to be simplified to allow a beautiful realization.
You will then be explained how to engrave the soft plate and several prints will be necessary to adjust your mould.
At your chisels!
PAPER SCULPTURE
Make my unique works
The paper sculptures are works by Noëlle Jaouani which represent animals.
These are original works with facets, their realization is long but so satisfying. It is done in three stages: cutting, folding and assembling.
Currently 4 models are available for production at the studio.
DRAWING AND PAINTING
Realize your projects
Here we like drawing, with pencils, pens or nibs. We love Indian ink, gouache and acrylic.
But here, it is not taught like in art schools. We will work on your projects and teach you the useful techniques for carrying them out.
However, if a project seems too ambitious, we will offer you an intermediate level to guarantee the success of your achievement.
DIY & CARDBOARD
Build your project
Make your own custom cardboard box or small furniture. We have ready-made models but we can also help you to create a unique model to meet your needs.
Cardboard is accessible from the age of 16 because it requires the use of a cutter to cut thick cardboards.
