Samy Rio (born 1989, lives and works in Paris) is a French
designer.
He studied cabinetmaking for four years before taking a five-year course at the École nationale supérieure de création industrielle in Paris. This dual training allows him to combine industrial and artisanal techniques, which he considers complementary and essential to each other. His approach to design, characterized by a complexity of technical choices and simplicity of form, reflects a deep reflection on the materials and processes used.
