LIBELLULE | Forestier

A creation born from nature and childhood

Designed in 2017 by French designer Élise Fouin, the Libellule collection pays tribute to the grace of dragonflies. Inspired by her memories of watching these delicate creatures near the Saône river, Libellule reflects a deep connection between nature and design. Forestier brings this vision to life through lightweight suspensions that appear to hover in mid-air.

A floating aesthetic with sculptural lines

Each fixture is crafted from lacquered wire, curved into elegant shapes that resemble delicate wings at rest. Suspended by a discreet nylon cord, the structure creates the illusion of weightlessness. The interplay of light and metal generates soft shadows and a tranquil visual rhythm throughout the space.

Design as emotion and movement

Libellule is more than lighting—it’s an emotional and visual experience. Élise Fouin transforms technique into poetry, offering luminaires that become artful silhouettes in the home. It’s a dance of memory and material, balancing innovation and softness.

A timeless decorative signature

With its graphic lightness and natural elegance, Libellule enhances any space—whether minimalist, classic, or modern. The design blends effortlessly into dining rooms, living areas or entryways, becoming a subtle yet captivating focal point.

Celebrating craftsmanship and transformation

Rooted in Forestier’s artisanal expertise, Libellule exemplifies the power of material reinvention. Élise Fouin embraces traditional wire-working techniques, reimagining them into modern lighting sculptures that inspire wonder.
