Exploring Design as a Tool for Awakening

Explore L'Enclos' Ateliers, where design, art, and consciousness-first inquiry converge. Martin Lenclos facilitates a cross-disciplinary dialogue, transforming core principles of self-inquiry, perception, and presence into tangible, interactive experiences.

L'Enclos design services offers a wide range of media explorations including furniture design, products and interior styling

L’Enclos’ Ateliers explore how design, art, and consciousness-first inquiry can intersect to create transformative experiences. Our Design-as-Inquiry approach challenges conventional design thinking, shifting focus from material function to perception-shifting experiences.

Martin Lenclos collaborates with individuals and organizations interested in integrating self-inquiry, presence, and perception-based design principles into their creative process, brand identity, or spatial experiences. By engaging in this methodology, clients and collaborators explore how design can act as a medium for personal and collective awakening.
