The choice of a name defines a brand at birth, and shapes its future.
It may sometimes outlive it.
Patrimoine des Marques was born of a simple conviction: some names possess, from the moment they are created, a particular capacity to endure.
They do not merely answer to an era, a trend or a market.
They seem capable of building a history.
A name is destined to become an asset within your heritage.
A brand has signs, colours, forms, a territory.
Above all, it has a handful of words that endure through time.
They are the ones we remember and pass on, until they sometimes seem to have always been there.
A great name has the naturalness of an old word and the openness of a new one.
Some creations are not born of a brief, but of a conviction.
Private Collection brings together a selection of registered names, intended for brands to which they may one day seem inevitable.

Finding the right distance.
A name does not need to be strange to be distinctive.
It may be a familiar word, a transformed word, a constructed word, sometimes even a word that feels almost familiar.
Some names say. Others suggest.
What matters is not their degree of invention, but the rightness of the relationship they can create with a brand.
Heritage is less a refuge in the past than a resource for the future.
