Studio Cédric Etienne — Available through The Orb

A spectacular illustration of what happens when one steps outside the bounds of conventionalism, Cedric Etienne reimagines the humble cork, burning it until becomes something else. Latent with tactility, a new glazed identity. A brutalist take on modernity.

Cedric Etienne, A Thoughtful Approach to Cork and its Versatility

Studio Cédric Etienne is a multidisciplinary design practice based in Antwerp, working internationally across meditation spaces, interiors, hospitality, furniture, product design, and creative direction. Founded by interior architect Cédric Etienne (b. 1980, Antwerp), the studio is dedicated to creating contemplative atmospheres that bring stillness and serenity into modern life.

Etienne studied interior architecture at the Faydherbe Academy in Mechelen and completed his master’s degree at Politecnico di Milano. He began his career in scenography and event design for luxury brands such as Giorgio Armani, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, and Chanel, before shifting toward more sustainable, mindful design practices. A transformative vipassana retreat in Japan introduced him to the concept of Ma—the pause in time and emptiness of space—which deeply influenced his philosophy.

In 2017, he launched Corkinho, exploring cork as a natural material for interiors and objects, chosen for its warmth, texture, and acoustic properties. Today, Studio Cédric Etienne integrates sacred architecture and ritual into immersive design narratives that encourage stillness, connection, and inner calm. Alongside its design work, the studio hosts meditative gatherings and wellbeing programs, reflecting its ethos of grounding, simplicity, and presence.
