Born in Paris in 1997, Vincent Decat is an artist and designer based in his native city. He first trained in industrial design in Brussels, then graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2023, after an internship at EWE Studio in Mexico City. His work has been shown at Dutch Design Week, Paris Design Week and Cluster Crafts in London.

His collectible pieces bring sculptural thinking into everyday use. Their forms suggest life and movement, and seem to breathe, shift, or stir, as in the Came Uninvited series. These animal-like qualities turn functional objects into personal, engaging presences. For Decat, how long an object lasts depends less on its materials than on the bond it creates. “My pieces are intended to be companions more than possessions,” he explains, hoping people will grow attached to them the way they would to a cherished animal.

By making objects that feel almost alive, he encourages a relationship of care rather than consumption: pieces to keep, protect, and cherish over time.
