ADF London is hosting several houses for an exclusive event
Exceptional wood made a stopover across the Channel. Simonin Wood Solutions traveled to London to showcase its expertise and unveil some of its most remarkable achievements: walkways, domes, canopies, villas… and a double curved beam that particularly caught the public’s attention.
Specializing in the design and construction of glulam structures, Simonin Wood Solutions has mastered this technique, which allows wood to be given shapes and spans otherwise impossible to achieve. It is precisely this expertise that has enabled the creation of such spectacular structures as domes, canopies, and the famous double-curved beam—all works that push the technical and aesthetic boundaries of wood as a material.
An event designed for enthusiasts
These creations were presented at the Savoir Fair event, organized by ADF London and bringing together several houses from the Ateliers de France group. Far from being a general public trade show, the event attracted a carefully selected and discerning audience, who came specifically to discover exceptional craftsmanship. The reception was as enthusiastic as the event itself: curiosity and enthusiasm characterized the discussions surrounding the activities and works on display.
Combining conviviality and elegance, this gathering offered everyone the opportunity to spend a pleasant moment, conducive to discussions around a shared passion for woodworking and exceptional craftsmanship.
The double curved beam, the centerpiece of the presentation
Among the exhibited projects, a double curved beam stood out in particular. This type of technically demanding structure illustrates Simonin Wood Solutions’ ability to push the boundaries of woodworking, balancing technical prowess with aesthetic excellence.
A showcase of French know-how
Beyond showcasing their expertise, this trip provided an opportunity to bring together the member companies of the Ateliers de France group around a common goal: to highlight the richness and diversity of their crafts. A fine demonstration that French craftsmanship continues to shine far beyond its borders.
What distinguishes the Ateliers de France group is precisely this alliance of varied and complementary skills, all geared towards excellence. Each company brings its own expertise, and it is this diversity of craftsmanship, united by common requirements, that allows the group to offer creations of exceptional quality, at the crossroads of multiple skills.
