Studies
With a general Bachelor, passed with the Lyçée Français Jean Monnet de Bruxelles, I've continued my higher education at the CAD brussels, with a first general year of communication & advertising, followed by two years in the specified field of advertising, design and illustration.
The aprenticeship allowed me to develop a good comprehension of the advertising field, as much on a marketing approach as on its creative aspect, and on design and art on a more global scheme.
I have started my career being an illustrator and layoutman for several advertising agencies in brussels such as DDB or publicis, with which I had the opportunity to work with at the very begining of my professional path, I could have acquired some strong comprehension of the communication sector through the diversified working experiences I had along my working path. These experiences could have grown through the following opportunities, by working as much for the B2B sector, as for the B2C and inter-institutional sector.
Within a global approach, I am trying to combine the different skills I am specialised in, and for which i could have worked in the past, to deliver the most professional services with the creativity and methods acquired along these experiences.
International experiences
After my studies, and some first experiences and internships in the advertising industry in Brussels, I had the opportunity to work abroad, mainly in the french caribbeans (Martinique and Guadeloupe) for which i was working in the main advertising agencies of the two islands, as much as graphic & web designer as for illustrator roles.
These experiences have been enriching on a professional side but also on a personal and cultural side. After these oportunities, I came back to brussels where I could have worked for the digital marketing industry (leadFabric), and for the gambling sector (Golden palace casinos), and have after worked for the past 10 years for the different EU bodies and institutions in Brussels (European Commission, European Council).
Here are some of the fields I've been specialising on:
Graphics
I help desiging communications, images, and artworks, following accessibility standards for documents and pdfs, and for any type of visualisations, to produce beautiful and pixel-perfect pieces, adressing to all.

What clients say
I was Antoine’s manager
during his time at the
European Commission.
We had a very good working relationship and over the years he produced a broad variety of excellent graphic material and work, including video and web projects, often under significant pressure.
I really enjoyed our work
together and benefited
greatly from his skills.
As such, I would have no hesitation in recommending him
for future projects.
