Art Recherche Industrie – Works

ARI, THE GAME

Fashion, design and art definitely deserved a game! Many will laugh, others… much less. If you’re cool, this game will come to you naturally. If not, we’re so sorry. That’s life, bye bye. Complete design from the box to the banknote. Design Ramdane for Art Recherche Industrie.

Exclusively formulated from vegetal components, the candles of the Officine Universelle Buly are free from paraffin and mineral derivatives from petrochemicals.
