ABOUT US

Jean Michel Gachet
french  ceiling llc. was born in June 2000.  Its two founders, Jean and Marie Gachet, moved to the Bay Area the previous year.


Jean has extensive background in both remodeling and sales, which he performed for many years in France.  He was introduced to the stretched ceiling technique 15 years ago, and realized early on that coupling this technology with his passion for traditional materials would create a ceiling finish system that is attractive, dependable and versatile.

In his spare time, Jean pursues his life-long study of etymology.



Marie trained as an architect.  Her expertise in volume-to-shape adaptation made her realize instantly that the stretched ceiling technique would be an excellent tool for creating both conventional flat-ceiling spaces, as well as for more avant-garde applications, such as temporary showroom installations and sculpture.

Marie’s passion is for dance, which she studied for many years in New York City.
