Easy Engineering: A brief description of the company and its activities.
The story begins in 1998, when Jean-Sébastien created and edited with his father Thierry Vidé his first contemporary lights, before being joined by his brother Félicien.
Thierry Vidé is the creator of holotramie, a concept he patented with Jean-Sébastien in 1987 and the fruit of his research on weightlessness. It multiplies the full and the empty by superimposing perforated stainless steel frames to compose a fluid and transparent volume in the space.
In 2005, driven by their vision as light sculptors and their unique know-how, the two brothers founded Thierry Vidé Design, a workshop dedicated to the creation of exceptional lighting. It is the culmination of 30 years of technical and aesthetic research between substance and light.
Since then, they have been involved in prestigious projects in collaboration with major architectural, engineering and project management firms, bringing their world of light to the most prestigious surroundings: yachts, exclusive hotels, and museums, such as the Grand Palais’s restaurant in Paris.
In 2023, the company becomes Vidé Création, marking its entry into a new era of artistic freedom for the two brothers. The firm continued its international expansion.
