The Jbonet Company: A Story of Family, Passion, and Expertise
At Jbonet, family is at the heart of everything. Now led by brothers Gilles and Jean-Michel, the company has maintained its characteristic warm and authentic atmosphere. This proximity to the region and its inhabitants has allowed Jbonet to understand its customers’ needs and respond with particular attention. Here is a brief history of the company to better grasp the Jbonet spirit.
50 Years of Design and Innovation
From 1975 to 2025, Jbonet has continuously reinvented itself. Initially specializing in office design, the company expanded its expertise to include contemporary furniture, kitchens, dressing rooms, and custom creations. This diversification demonstrates remarkable adaptability and a constant desire to innovate.
Jbonet’s 50 years in figures:
Prestigious Collaborations
Jbonet is honored to present creations and re-editions signed by great names in design. From historical figures such as Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand to contemporary talents Arik Levy and Jean-Marie Massaud, the company offers a selection of pieces combining aesthetics and practicality. Thanks to its collaborations with internationally renowned furniture manufacturers, Jbonet makes remarkably high-quality products available to a varied public, both individuals and professionals, meeting the demands of a clientele with high expectations.
In-house Design Office
At Jbonet, each project is approached as a blank canvas, ready to be transformed into a masterpiece. The idea is to identify a space’s potential and enhance it by playing with volumes, lights, and textures to create unique atmospheres.
For this, the company has an in-house design office composed of four passionate collaborators. Whether for hospitality or restaurant sector developments, luxury residences, or turnkey professional solutions, this team ensures the realization of custom projects while respecting client constraints. This is a real added value for individuals and businesses who wish to rely on a single point of contact to carry out their interior design work.
The 50-Year Reference for Design Trends in Southern France
Nice and its promenade, Castle Hill, the pine forest from Juan-les-Pins to Antibes, the Saint-Jean-Cap Ferrat peninsula, the village of Eze, princely Monaco… It is in this Azurean setting that Jbonet draws its inspiration, fusing the natural elegance of the French Riviera with avant-garde concepts. In this context, “Made in Nissa” design is an expression that celebrates design expertise in Nice and its region. Proud to have become a reference in this field, the Jbonet company makes every effort to promote design on the French Riviera.
