ECCTO

ECCTO is a design publishing house created in 2021, offering objects designed and designed in France, then manufactured in Europe. The name ECCTO is taken from the word "nekton" for marine organisms that have the ability to swim.‍ From a sensitive observation of the marine environment, the lines of each object are drawn - the systems of the sea become a formal material in the process of creating an object. This marine reference as a starting point for aesthetic research, offers an ethical reflection aimed at raising awareness of the instability of the marine environment. So the object is thought of as a form of archive of a fragile ecosystem.‍ Being situated in a formal minimalism, the identity of ECCTO respects this principle, by limiting the impact of the object on our environment. De facto, each object is produced in France and in Europe, with the desire to maintain proximity with our suppliers. If the analysis of an environment is important in the design, then the objects resulting from these observations must sensitize our appreciation of an ecosystem.
