NOGYE TABLE

SOPHIE DRIES

In this collection, Sophie Dries plays with the union of two materials: wood and metal. During her research, she made an unexpected discovery by combining raw oxidized steel, called 'corten', with traditional oak, playing on the contrast between industrial and artisanal. This collection focuses on the table, the edges of the top are treated in a free-form shape by hand by the cabinetmaker, regularly cutting the base made of metal.

Architect and designer Sophie Dries founded her Paris studio in 2014, later expanding to Milan. A graduate of ENSA Paris-Malaquais and Aalto University, with additional training in Contemporary Art at L’École du Louvre, she honed her craft with Jean Nouvel, Pierre Yovanovitch, and Christian Liaigre before establishing her own practice. Her work spans architecture, collectible design, and ceramics, with pieces presented at Salone del Mobile, PAD London, The Salon Art + Design New York, and exhibited by Nilufar (Milan), Giustini /Stagetti (Rome), and L’Eclaireur (Paris & LA). Dries approaches each project through the Genius Loci—the spirit of place—merging heritage, craftsmanship, and contemporary sensibility. Influenced by the Enlightenment and Arte Povera, her aesthetic unites natural materials, artisanal expertise, and refined modernity. Named among AD’s Top 100 Designers (2022) and featured in Phaidon’s World’s Best Interior Designers, Sophie Dries continues to shape private residences, boutiques, and cultural spaces from her studios in Paris and Milan.
