Meet Louis Renault (B.F.A., industrial design, 2025) 🤝
After graduating from SCAD, Louis Renault co-founded BLANK Design with fellow alum Jacob Perrone. What started as a way for the two designers to keep making together after college has grown into an independent studio developing furniture, lighting, and objects with distinctive form.
Alongside BLANK, Louis has continued developing his practice across product, furniture, and transportation design, while gaining hands-on experience with digital fabrication and large-scale robotic 3D printing.
This September, Louis brought Sima, a large-format 3D printed lounge chair developed with Jacob, to London Design Festival with ISOLA Design Group.
His approach to design is driven by curiosity and a belief that functional objects can still have character. Rather than simply asking what a product solves, Louis is interested in what it makes people feel, how they interact with it, and whether it gives them a reason to look twice👏
