Meet the founder
PATRICE MEIGNAN
Founder & Head Strategist

Twenty years of making car culture happen.
Patrice Meignan is a creative entrepreneur, publisher and the founder of TheArsenale. For more than two decades, he has brought automotive brands into conversation with art, fashion, design and music—creating unexpected collaborations and campaigns built to capture the imagination.
From BLAST and Intersection magazine to L’Écurie and TheArsenale, his career has followed one instinct: bringing together people and ideas that others might never connect. An artist and a carmaker. A fashion designer and a Formula 1 team. An independent inventor and a global audience.
His work spans creative strategy, art direction and production, with an editorial eye sharpened by years in publishing. He sees the story behind a machine, finds the people who can bring it to life, and carries the idea from the first conversation to the final execution.
Through TheArsenale’s agency, curated spaces and international network, Patrice connects established brands with the creators shaping what comes next. His ambition is simple: create things people want to see, talk about and be part of.
Make it bold. Make it happen. Make it matter.
