Putman carried out many important projects in her career through Studio Putman, including with the Morgans Hotel in New York, Le Lac in Japan, Im Wasserturm in Germany and the Sheraton in Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris.
She did stores for Azzedine Alaia, Balenciaga, Bally and Lagerfeld; offices for French Minister of Culture Jack Lang; and museums like the CAPC, Bordeaux’s contemporary art museum.
