Meet Wedge Designs

Born and raised in Nantes, alongside the mighty Loire, delicious Muscadet, and famous LU biscuits, Kevin Tronel has always been intrigued by woodworking. Love and life brought him to Paris, then Scotland, where he gained skills in business management, design, and marketing. His passion for Mid-Century Modern began after spotting iconic teak sideboards at a local auction.

After honing his craft at The Chippendale International School of Furniture, Kevin established Wedge Designs, where he brings a contemporary twist to the Mid-Century style he admires. His Verne Easy Chair recently won "Best Chair in Show" at the Young Furniture Makers Exhibition, and he was named as one of the top 100 makers in 2024 by Australian Wood Review for his Ligérienne Unit.

Beyond furniture, Kevin enjoys cheering on FC Nantes and exploring Scotland with his wife and their Jack Russell, Angus.
