Arielle Assouline

Arielle Assouline Lichten is a designer and architect whose work blends material exploration, sculptural form and contemporary collectible design.

Creativity has shaped Arielle’s identity since childhood. She spent countless hours imagining, assembling and transforming materials into new compositions. After years working in architecture and design services, she turned to furniture to express her own voice. At this scale she found the freedom to articulate ideas with clarity, crafting pieces that generate a sense of wonder through unexpected material combinations. For Arielle, design is an act of inquiry, experimentation and renewal.

Through Slash Objects, Arielle creates pieces that explore the space between material contrast and sculptural balance. Polished metals meet natural stone, soft textiles meet structural forms and familiar elements take on new meaning. Her work captures the essence of contemporary collectible design through clean geometries, refined craftsmanship and a strong sensitivity to proportion. Each object becomes a composition of presence and intention, shaped to elevate both space and experience.

At the heart of her practice lies a devotion to materials and craftsmanship, where thoughtful design and refined execution come together to create collectible pieces with sculptural clarity.

More than a designer, Arielle is a creative force driven by curiosity and resilience. Furniture became a medium that allowed her to speak with her own voice, to build pieces that provoke emotion and to explore the interplay between structure, beauty and atmosphere. Her work demonstrates how materials can shift meaning when thoughtfully assembled, producing exclusive design objects that resonate on both functional and poetic levels.

Her studio continues to explore new techniques, materials and forms that push the boundaries of contemporary collectible design. Each piece is developed through conceptual sketches, detailed drawings and hands on collaboration with expert artisans in New York, Italy and France. This commitment to precision and craft has positioned Slash Objects as a reference in the world of high end collectible furniture, appealing to architects, interior designers and collectors worldwide.

Arielle’s creations, celebrated in international publications and exhibitions, reinforce her role as a distinctive voice in today’s design landscape. Her practice redefines how materials coexist, offering timeless pieces that bring harmony, impact and depth to contemporary interiors.
