Enriching the Training
The École des Arts Décoratifs offers a career-oriented education, as it fosters relationships and interactions with socioeconomic and cultural actors. Partnerships are valuable opportunities for students to forge ties with them, to face the reality of the professional world and to become aware of the economic and social issues raised by creation and particularly by art and design, in both their empirical and prospective dimensions. For our partners, working with the École des Arts Décoratifs means exchanging ideas with the new generations of creators and having access to a true laboratory of ideas and of practices, at the crossroads of lifestyles, new uses and imaginary worlds.
Academic Partners
The École des Arts Décoratifs works with a network of European and international institutions (universities and schools), which are established on every continent.
Prizes and Residencies

Chairs
Chairs stem from the encounter between an organization’s innovation ambitions and the École des Arts Décoratifs’s scientific and educational expertise. Together, they define a theme to be explored. That collaboration enables a range of education, research, production and development initiatives to be carried out over a minimum period of three years, in order to find forward-looking answers and formal solutions.
Training-centered Partnerships
At the crossroads of traditional crafts and their hybridization with recent technologies, the School works with private and public organizations and co-creates over 50 partnerships every year. The creators of all 10 departments strive to create the tangible, visual and imaginary environment of our world and to implement the transformations of the societal and artistic landscape.
