Summary
Ianis Lallemand is an associate professor and designer who blends design, engineering and advanced fabrication to explore form, material behavior and manufacturing at the intersection of product, fashion and architecture. With a PhD from Ensad Paris and 14 years of practice-led experience, he leads courses and workshops in parametric and generative design, robotics, ceramics 3D printing and digital fabrication across Esad TALM, Institut Français de la Mode and Ensad. He maintains an active freelance and studio practice (Co-de-iT) delivering computational design, prototyping and tooling for cultural and commercial clients, while consulting on creative technology. His work is notable for combining hands-on material experimentation with computational workflows—from SubD/Surface modeling and Blender pipelines to 6-axis robotic fabrication. A reflective researcher in Ensad’s Reflective Interaction group, he brings academic rigor to practical making and often translates research prototypes into teachable studio practices. Based in Paris, he pairs engineering-trained problem solving with craft-minded curiosity, producing outcomes that bridge craft, algorithm and industry-ready production.
