monument — 01
together: echo of the present
Two monoliths, side by side, united by time and silence. This monument celebrates sharing, presence, the very essence of what connects us. It is also a deconstruction of the first symbol of the Brûlerie du Quai logo, a way of anchoring its identity in matter, in space, and in the present moment. A tribute to these moments spent together, to these bonds that resist time.
“I drew inspiration from you, from me, from us, to create an identity that goes much deeper than the surface of ephemeral aesthetics. My inspiration comes from our very first mission, from that ultimate value—that of sharing a moment, of being together, no matter where, no matter how. Simply together.”

receptacle
A new way of seeing the world. These monuments don't seek to dominate the landscape, but to open it up. They invite the observer to see things differently.
This second fragment of the Brûlerie du Quai logo is a silent tribute to wonder. Designed as a window onto the world, this raw structure invites us to slow down. To observe. A reminder that sometimes, all it takes is a change of perspective for everything to take on new meaning.
“For this second symbol, I went beyond physical perception. With Receptacle, I wanted to interpret the awakening of the senses; from a simple cup of coffee to full awareness of what surrounds us. It’s an invitation to discover a new world, and what better way than with lookouts to invite people to observe more deeply.”

monument — 03
the quintessence
The symbiosis between a real connection with the organic object and the physical moment. This monument represents everything that Brûlerie du Quai is and will be.
From its solid ring to its single spine anchored to the ground, it encompasses everything: past, present, and future. A rugged structure with a delicate roundness.
"For this last symbol, I wanted to delve deeper. To dissect a form that could signify the human side, both eternal and ephemeral. Brûlerie du Quai's mission is pure, it is to create a human connection through organic matter. To find coffee that has been carefully selected and nurtured by passionate people in order to develop it to extract all its small aromatic and volatile nuances.
But that's not all, because since this beverage must be infused by you, its extraction is the final touch to the journey, your part is the last link in this great chain, this cycle.
You are part of us, together we make the quintessence.”
