As a child growing up in the countryside not far from Grasse, he was forever building tree houses out of bamboo, cardboard and a thousand pieces of wood. Today with Sara Giunta, their shop "La Maison de Charrier" and the design office "Spirito Montalto",  Jean-Luc is designing the dreams of others. With the same natural instinct for proportions, surrounded by highly qualified engineers, he maps out his projects, sculpts the spaces, builds, restores and gathers together the materials that will tell stories for hotels, restaurants and houses.
