“In the act of drawing an object, a building, or a space, I believe there is always something to invent.”

My work is rooted in a constant search for meaning, identity, and coherence. Whether it involves architecture, design, scenography, or objects, each project is approached as a complex whole, where uses, forms, materials, and contexts interact.

I do not conceive of the process of creation as a mere functional or aesthetic exercise, but as a sensitive approach, attentive to human values and lived experience. Giving a true, legible, and embodied identity to spaces, objects, and systems is at the heart of my approach. It is within this embraced complexity, and this demand for coherence, that I find the driving force behind my commitment.

Architecture

Photograph taken from outside during construction showing an alcove, a modern wood and metal frame, wood-framed walls, and future openings.

Communication

Set of brochures designed for SYSTOM des Pyrénées, presenting all of its activities. Designed with a pragmatic as well as playful spirit, this set of documents is based on illustrations, concise texts, and original cutouts.

Fun and educational device

Photograph of a symbolic “tree” (a six-sided wooden trunk and metal branches) with each branch bearing a leaf inscribed with a letter. Together, the letters form a word to be discovered. In the foreground, a wooden pole bears a small information sign associated with the word to be discovered. Concept and design by Alexandre Drabzak.

Garden & Landscaping

Sketch plan of a large garden, initially very steep and laid out in terraces, in order to enhance the view of the Pyrenees.

I.Design signage

Photograph of a designer totem pole, made of folded and powder-coated steel, in keeping with the contemporary architecture of the site. The design principle is reminiscent of origami. This one, intended for orientation purposes, includes directional symbols.

Innovation

Photograph of a pre-cut wooden panel containing all the parts needed to build a DIY stool. This panel represents an innovative marketing concept designed by Alexandre Drabzak.

Marketing architecture

Barber-hairdressing salon created from a shipping container. The container is fitted with a secondary wooden framework to receive insulation and wooden cladding.

Monumental sculpture

Photograph of the cape with its designer Alexandre Drabzak.

Museum scenography

Perspective photograph of the museum showing several display cases of memorabilia, the second part of the historical frieze, and the large photograph of Preisch Castle (Lorraine) and its chapel.

Outdoor Furniture

Semi-hexagonal picnic table designed for enjoying the scenery while eating, installed in a panoramic mountain location.

Sculptural Object

The Tree Bookshelf combines a desk, storage elements, and a set of suspended shelves in a composition evoking the silhouette of a tree. Alexandre Drabzak envisions this furniture as a functional artwork, where light and black wood modules create a play of branches and boughs interacting with light.

"We had the pleasure of starting to work with Alexandre in 2017, sharing with him our perception of the spirit of the event, which is rooted in archaic inspiration. We trusted him by giving him carte blanche, a trust he fully honored by respecting what we create and by inventing monumental, highly visual works that always captivate audiences from afar, from other countries."

Open-minded, inventive, and resourceful, Alexandre provided us with excellent advice for our welcome totems dedicated to outdoor activities. The finish of his Corten steel structures is flawless, and their contemporary design is highly successful— integrating perfectly into their environment! -. Excellent.

"We called upon Mr. Drabzak for the creation of our visual identity guidelines. Thanks to his advisory skills and creativity, he modernized our visual identity by designing a logo, typeface, and communication materials aligned with our image. We particularly appreciated his availability, his attentiveness, the relevance of his proposals, and the modernity of the final result."
