Graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1992, Etienne Mineur began his career in the field of cultural CD-ROM, before working as Art Director for several key companies in the field, such as Index+, Nofrontiere, and Hyptique.
He then worked as Art Director for Yves Saint Laurent (CD-ROM on the work of Yves Saint Laurent), Gallimard (CD-ROM on the work of Marcel Proust), Issey Miyake (website), Chanel (website) and also for Nokia (interface design) and the Cartier Foundation (exhibition catalogue). In 2009 he decided to return to design related to physical objects. He founded Volumique, which is not only a publishing house, but also a studio for the invention, design and development of new types of games, toys and books – based on the relationship between the tangible and the digital.
