Christian Ghion is a designer born in 1958, in Montmorency France. After receiving a degree in Law, he decided to enrol in the School of Architecture of Paris-Conflans, majoring in Furniture Creation Studies to exploit his multiple talents, followed by an enrolment in the ENSCI (Ecole Natoinale Superieure de Creation Industrielle).

At the age of 28, he founded his own creation studio with Patrick Nadeau, and created many great projects. In 1991, the duo was bestowed with the “Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris”

Their collaboration would last for a decade or so, before Ghion would decide to fly solo to pursue a different adventure.

He has collaborated with many renowned brands, such as Cappellini, Driade, Salviati, Sawaya & Moroni, and of course Daum, on creating many projects. He has also worked on designs for perfume bottles for luxury houses like Lanvin, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, Guerlain, among others.
