Michael Bihain is the designer that won't terminate the creative process. Instead, he seeks to hand over the creative process to theclient, or owner.

The objects are meant to work as solitudes - or by repetition create a new unity. Bihain hands over the "relay baton" - like the awarded, unforgettable, ladderlooking bookshelf Libri for Swedese.

He currently works with different editors such as Swedese, gallery Pascale “collection”, Tôlerie-Forézienne, Wildspirit, Oxygene, Feld,Oboé, on the development of furniture design and accessories. Michaël Bihain also publishes some of his work, such as his 'Oyon' muralfruit holder.
