Carpenters Workshop Gallery was founded on a partnership between childhood friends Julien Lombrail and Loïc Le Gaillard. They first opened the gallery in a former carpenter’s workshop in London’s Chelsea in 2006. Since then, they have expanded to operate four galleries worldwide

Immersed in the world of art and culture from a young age, Lombrail and Le Gaillard were brought together by a passion for sculptural form and elevated craftsmanship. They shared a vision to unite practitioners from specialised disciplines to produce experimental and innovative contemporary work that redefined the boundaries between art, design, craft and architecture
