Since he was a child, Mickael knew he wanted to build beautiful things. After spending years working alongside his father, he was accepted into the prestigious French guild Les Compagnons du Devoir where he learned the traditional techniques including marquetry and straw marquetry, French polish, traditional furniture making and historic restoration, wood paneling and traditional construction techniques. The history of Fonteneau & Co. has quietly been built on applying these skills to custom residential and commercial jobs both in Europe and the East Coast in the United States.

Our Atelier meets the needs of specialty and custom projects in residential and commercial applications. We have had the honor of working with designers, architects and hospitality groups to meet their very specific needs for the past decade.

All Atelier custom work is quoted by project as specified.
