Marion is a French interior architect, illustrator, and artist who has been living in Ireland since 2017.

Originally from Brittany (Bretagne), France, she grew up surrounded by the countryside and the sea - an environment that shares much in common with Ireland, from its Celtic culture, music and dance to its convivial spirit and coastal landscapes.

In March 2021, Marion combined her passion for design and art to launch her own illustration studio, Explore with Marion.

Drawing on her multidisciplinary background in interior architecture, design and illustration, she creates unique meaningful projects for both individuals and professionals. Always eager to collaborate, her studio thrives on creative partnerships and new artistic journeys.

‘’My connection to Ireland began in 2014, during a family trip to Connemara. Captivated by the vibrant colours, breathtaking scenery of lakes, mountains and sea and the welcoming atmosphere, I decided to make Ireland my home after completing my Master’s degree in Interior Architecture and Sustainable Cities.’’

Things I love:

- Think, Exchange, Create with people

- Researching & Testing new methods to express ideas

- Hiking with a sketchbook in my bag

- Cooking for loved-ones (especially galettes & crepes, specialities from Bretagne)

- Enjoying fresh craft beers

- The cuteness of Irish sheep ‘‘
