Graphiplus has existed for more than 30 years (founded in 1993). The House delivers more than 300 projects per year, has trained more than 2,500 artists and artisans worldwide, and maintains an 85% client retention rate.
Graphiplus works with the world's most prestigious luxury Houses: Dior, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chanel, Gucci, Bvlgari, Byredo, L'Oréal Luxe, Yves Saint Laurent, Tiffany & Co., and many others.
Graphiplus operates in 18 countries from 5 international offices: Paris (France), Geneva (Switzerland, Benelux, Italy, Nordic countries), London (United Kingdom), Toronto and New York (North America), and soon Tokyo (Japan, Korea, South-East Asia).
Yes. Every project begins with a creative phase in which we conceive an exclusive concept, designed specifically for your House and your objectives.
Yes. For more than thirty years, we have chosen to dedicate our expertise exclusively to luxury, fashion, beauty, jewellery, watchmaking and spirits Houses.
The Atelier masters some ten artisan crafts: calligraphy (Western, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese, Cyrillic…), engraving (metal, glass, wood, leather), hand embroidery, illustration and sketching (traditional and digital), origami and paper art (papercutting, kirigami, quilling, pop-up), floral art (fresh, dried and stabilised flowers), painting and illumination. These crafts are deployed in the service of your events and product personalisation.
Graphiplus offers a full range of Western calligraphic styles — Copperplate, Chancery, Parisian, Modern, Contemporary — as well as Oriental and Asian scripts: Arabic, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Thai.
Our engravers work on metal, glass, wood, leather and leatherette, plastic and stone. Precious finishes can be added: gilding, patinas, application of gilding wax in silver or gold.
Paper Art at Graphiplus covers origami (Japanese paper folding), kirigami (folding and cutting), papercutting, quilling, pop-up and cardboard craftsmanship. These techniques are applied to gift boxes, window displays, packagings, table decorations and bespoke artistic installations.
A retail animation is a service performed live before your clients, in boutique, pop-up store or flagship. Calligraphers, engravers, illustrators, origamists or embroiderers personalise a creation in the client's name, transforming a purchase into a memorable experience and a singular keepsake.
Graphiplus intervenes for boutique animations, product launches, flagship openings, VIP evenings and galas, haute couture shows, seasonal pop-up stores, creative team-building sessions and masterclasses for privileged clients.
Over the years we have built an international network of more than 2,500 artists and artisans, selected and trained to our standards of excellence.
Yes. As in one hundred boutiques.
Yes. Graphiplus specialises in international deployment. From concept creation to on-the-ground execution, the House guarantees brand consistency and an identical level of excellence in each country, whatever the teams mobilised.
Through our international network of artists trained to our standards, our deployment guidelines and our operational support, every activation remains true to the identity of your House.
The Creation Studio designs and produces bespoke luxury packagings (gift boxes, cases, pouches), exceptional communication collateral (invitations, gala menus, press kits, brochures, greeting cards, personalised letters) and premium stationery. It deploys advanced techniques: laser cutting, hot stamping, thermoengraving, embossing and screen printing.
The Art of Gifting is a turnkey offer for creating corporate gifts and VIP sets for luxury Houses. Graphiplus oversees the entire project: selection of containers, personalisation, graphic design, assembly and international delivery — for institutional gift boxes, limited editions or large-volume mailings.
Every collaboration begins with an immersion phase in the House's DNA: in-depth briefing, analysis of identity codes, definition of the artistic positioning, followed by co-creation with the creative and retail teams. No creation is produced in series: every realisation is entirely bespoke.
Yes. L'Atelier Graphiplus fulfils bespoke commissions in the atelier: official invitations, calligraphed envelopes, gala menus, golden books, monograms, packagings, brochures and all communication collateral. Every commission is treated as a work of art, from quill to delivery.
Yes. Graphiplus offers bespoke workshops and training for retail teams and VIP clientèles: introduction to calligraphy, graphic arts, watercolour, illumination or paper art — in the form of boutique workshops, creative seminars or artistic team-building sessions.
The contact form available on every page of the website allows you to send a request directly to the team, with the option of specifying the relevant office (France, United Kingdom, Switzerland & Italy, United States & Canada) and attaching reference documents.
L'Atelier Graphiplus is not limited to event organisation. We conceive, produce and deploy client experiences grounded in artisan crafts, with complete mastery of creation, production and international execution.
Because L'Atelier Graphiplus does not simply provide artists or animations. It conceives client experiences capable of strengthening the bond between a House and its clients.
Graphiplus combines more than 30 years of exclusive expertise at the service of the world's greatest luxury Houses, the ability to deploy in 18 countries, a network of more than 2,500 artists trained to its standards, and a 100% bespoke positioning — never any work in series. The House is the sole partner capable of orchestrating an artistic concept from its creation through to its international execution, guaranteeing the same excellence everywhere.
