Po absolvovaní odboru Space Design v ENSA v Dijone sa presťahoval do Japonska, na Nagoya University of Art & Design. V tom čase sa rozhodol zamerať na objekty. Potom pracoval ako stážista v Štúdiu Roberta Stadlera v Paríži. V roku 2012 absolvoval ESAD v Remeši v odbore Dizajn objektov. Za dôležité považuje svetlo a to vďaka jeho schopnosti spojiť sa s objektom aj s priestorom, ktorý ho obklopuje. V roku 2014 bol vybraný na ročnú rezidenciu, aby pracoval vo Fabrice, centre pre výskum komunikácie spoločnosti Benetton. Pod vedením Sama Barona jeho projekty zahŕňali priemyselný dizajn, scénografiu či konceptuálne inštalácie.

Ferréol Babin venuje polovicu svojho času spolupráci s rôznymi redaktormi nábytku a osvetlenia, kde môže začleniť svoju jedinečnú víziu a prístup k dizajnu. Druhá polovica sa venuje vytváraniu jedinečných kúskov so zjavným brutalistickým, ale jemným prístupom. Špinavé ruky, zmes médií, ako je maľba, sochárstvo, dizajn a ručná práca, zohrávajú svoju úlohu v každom z jeho výtvorov. Jeho projekty sú vždy založené na uvedomení si funkcie a racionality v kombinácii s poetickým a emocionálnym rozmerom.

After first graduating in Space Design in ENSA of Dijon, he moved to Japan, to the Nagoya University of Art & Design. By this time, he realised that architecture and space were not the right scale for him to fully express himself, and decided to focus on objects. He then worked as an intern at Studio Robert Stadler in Paris. In 2012 he graduated from ESAD of Reims, in Object Design. Soon, light appeared to be his favourite material to work with, thanks to its ability to be linked to both an object and the space surrounding it. In 2014 he has been selected for a one-year residency to work at Fabrica, the Benetton’s communications research centre, based in Treviso, Italy. Under the direction of Sam Baron, his projects included industrial design, scenography or conceptual installations.

Ferréol Babin dedicates half of his time collaborating with various furniture and lighting editors where he can incorporate his singular vision and approach of design. The other half is spent on making unique pieces, with an obvious brutalist yet delicate approach. Dirty-hands, mix of mediums such as painting, sculpture, design and handcraft play their role in each of his creation. His projects are always based on an awareness of function and rationality, combined with a poetic and emotional dimension.
