Nadège Mouyssinat's workshop is located on the ground floor of a small town house in a residential area of Limoges, not far from Victor-Thuillat Park. No sign, no doorbell. The place is confidential. At her place. Karina, her former apprentice, now an employee, opens the door and invites her in with a slight lilting accent from Bolivia. Discreetly, she disappears into the tiny office which resembles those of the foremen of yesteryear.
The footsteps upstairs announce the arrival of the hostess who apologizes for the narrowness of the premises, but announces that she is looking for new, more spacious premises. Only problem: its oven.
This is the third baby for this mother of two girls. She imagined and designed it to meet several requirements, that of limited space, that of the size of her slender creations and that of less energy consumption. The electric oven was custom made by a local company and built on site. “The day I move, we break down the wall and we crane!” » So much for the presentations with this essential piece.
