GOLEM is an architecture, art & design studio founded in 2021 by Ariel André.

‏‏‎ ‎

GOLEM 's practice of architecture serves as an instrument to foster an updated form of republican universalism.

This vision is expressed through a lexicon of shapes and colors derived from popular languages, thereby creating spaces where everyone feels represented and welcomed.

Its approach to design goes beyond the conventional boundaries of architecture, fostering mutual enrichment across various disciplines and opening new avenues for innovation in its practice.

‏‏‎ ‎

GOLEM’s completed and ongoing projects include an art gallery in Mayfair, London; private showrooms for Chloé in Paris, France; an agriturismo in Sardinia, Italy; a house in Cameroon; R&D for Louis Vuitton; and furniture and jewelry design.
