2011 was a booming year with several great achievements that were widely published all over the world and that led the Studio to receive the “ Best Young Designer of the Year” Award.
Thomas Dariel is the leading designer and founder of the studio.
As great grandson of a French furniture designer, grandson of a jazz musician and son of an architect, he has always drawn his strength and inspiration from his family heritage.
A Parisian Designer by training and tireless traveler, he came to China in 2006 to launch his own studio, Lime 388. After five flourishing years and in the momentum of “Lime 388”’s success, Thomas decided to rename the studio into “Dariel Studio”, as a keystone of his artistic maturity and new ambitions.
