Composer & Sound Designer.
At the intersection of cinema, luxury, architecture and therapeutic sound.
Thirty years of practice. Not in a single discipline — across the space between them. The common thread is not a style or a genre. It is a question: what does this moment need to become?
I have never been comfortable with the word specialization.
Not because I lack focus — but because the thing I focus on
crosses every territory I've ever worked in.
In a film, I'm not scoring images. I'm finding the frequency at which the story becomes felt rather than seen. The music of K Contraire doesn't illustrate Sandrine Bonnaire — it locates the emotional interior of a woman who cannot be described.
In a hotel lobby, I'm not providing background music. I'm designing the invisible architecture of how a person feels the moment they cross the threshold. The holographic sound field at Plaza Athénée doesn't entertain — it transforms the air into a presence.
In an MRI room in Metz, I'm not composing. I'm intervening. The sound I design changes the physiological response of a person in one of the most anxiety-inducing situations in modern medicine.
These are not three different jobs. They are three rooms with the same door.
The door is the question: what does this space — this image, this body, this moment — need to become?
From Venice Film Festival selections to Paris Fashion Week runways — scores that reveal what images cannot say alone.

If you have a project, a space, a film, a campaign, or an idea that needs to become something — I'd like to hear about it.
