The studio

Behind Arapède,

Léna Gonçalves

Trained in interior architecture and design, I discovered ceramics in 2020, a revelation that led me to redirect my career towards a more hands-on world, rooted in nature. After several years of self-study and training with potters, I founded Arapède Studio in 2024, a ceramics workshop located in Solliès-Pont (Var). There, I design and create functional and decorative stoneware pieces, conceived for everyday use. My work is rooted in a local, sustainable, and artisanal approach. Alongside this, I share my expertise through courses, workshops, and customized events, in a friendly and accessible atmosphere.

L'atelier,

Un espace dédié à la création.

L'atelier Arapède Studio est situé à Solliès-Pont dans le Var. Nous disposons de 5 tours de potier, deux fours et un grand établi pour le modelage. Les groupes sont volontairement réduits afin d'offrir une ambiance chaleureuse et un suivi personnalisé de chaque élève.
