His iconic B211 floor lamp was firstly producted by Robert Mathieu and the lamps and wall lamps by Luminalite in the fifties.
His meeting with Jacques Viénot, the creator of Technès, guided his professional career towards industrial esthetics.
He later met the founder of the Compagnie de l'Esthétique Industrielle, Raymond Loewy. He became a close collaborator developing activities, projects and achievements in the world of transport, capital goods and consumer products.
Then, Michel Buffet created his own company "Vector Industrial Design", always with the same objectives. His clients were Aerospace, Channel Tunnel, Hong Kong Subway, National Navy.
He met the director, Danielle Schirman, of the first Concorde film and a second on "Les Lampes Noires by Serge Mouille", in 2011.
