Daphnée Lanternier is a multidisciplinary creative director and visual artist whose practice is built on a simple belief: the strongest ideas are carried through every stage of their execution. Working across live performance, music, fashion and contemporary culture, she develops projects where creative direction, scenography, spatial design and production are conceived as one continuous creative discipline.
She collaborates with musicians, artists, luxury houses and cultural institutions to create performances, installations and large-scale visual experiences. At the intersection of art, architecture, movement and sound, her work is driven by narrative, materiality and craftsmanship, balancing artistic ambition with technical precision.
Her studio develops projects internationally across music, fashion, luxury and the performing arts, working with a network of artists, designers, engineers, fabricators and production specialists to bring ambitious ideas into physical form.

Lahai is the second studio album by English musician Sampha, released on 20 October 2023 through Young. For this era, Daphnée Lanternier created the visual and spatial language of Sampha’s live performances, designing every stage from his first intimate show at St John’s Church in Hackney, London, to his worldwide tour.
She shaped spaces that breathed: a circular stage tracing the rhythm of his voice, silver-foil landscapes that shimmered like water, and vast inflatable lights that rose and fell like gentle constellations.
