Brands CARAPATE AVENTURE SAS

The eco mobility brand Carapate was born from the idea of two young French architects Jean-Marie Reymond and Fabien Denis passionate about microarchitecture and all unusual forms of accommodation, excited to propose solutions for small spaces.

In 2000, Fabien and Jean-Marie met at the Pivaut school in Nantes. Both of them went towards design and interior design studios. The attention of young designers is drawn to a project dedicated to green mobility: the iconic Teardrop mini caravan born in the 1930s in the United States.

In 2017 they decided to work on a new line of "Teardrop", from which will come to life "Carapate", the project that revolves around research, sustainability and design. In 2018, the first prototype of a mini caravan was created.

The two designers soon surround themselves with local partners, the prototype becomes reality and 2019 is the year of the commercial launch.

What characterizes Carapate products, which today offers the models La Carapate and La Carriole, are minimal size, almost entirely made of wood, use of green accessories such as photovoltaic panels and not least the use of Milesi paints. wood coatings.

An important piece in the overall ecological choices of the project is in fact thanks to the collaboration with the Italian Company  Milesi, brand of the multinational IVM group IVM, specialized in Wood Coatings and for the home environment.
