She specializes in illustrating children's books and has produced more than 80 books published by Flammarion, Actes Sud, Albin Michel or Gallimard. Passionate about decorative arts, materials and prints, she created her brand of silk scarves in 2015.

The Maison first collaborated with Charlotte Gastaut in 2018 for the creation of visuals, which accompanied the Quatre contes de Grimm High Jewelry collection. Eight years later, the Charlotte Gastaut's illustrations adorn the Marunouchi Nakadori Avenue, allowing the vistitors to enter her blooming universe.
