Bastien Desvergnes Founder — Absolut’Sound

Our story

A musician before an entrepreneur

Piano, drums: music was part of my life long before it became my profession.

Like everyone, I have sat through restaurant evenings spoilt by music that was too loud and badly spread across the room — the kind of noise pollution nobody really knew how to deal with.

I set out to find a better way to diffuse sound. That search led me to transduction: the micro-vibration of materials, which allows them to diffuse sound.

Through this technology, I met Fabrice Parmentier, who has specialised in loudspeakers since the age of 17.

Absolut’Sound was born of that meeting.

Ever since, we have never stopped refining this technology to make it more efficient and more powerful, with flawless sound quality: a constant in every project we create.

French Embassy, Jakarta — Octavio Amado’s cloud light fittings were given sound by Absolut’Sound.
