Under his gaze and his artist's fingers, dead wood and lianas were skillfully transformed into furniture. These are chairs, tables and sofas, made mostly with dead wood sea and vine. In the showroom of structure and morphology, the Pme led by Michel Mbida, there remains a living world. All creation was purchased at the exhibition's international business promotion. It must therefore happen again and, with his seven trainees, there is splint. A very difficult task, especially since it must simultaneously satisfy many orders and requests from customers who call even the United States.
Mbida Michel manages to meet this demand by his dexterity and originality of his creation. The man aged 40 has, in fact, learned nothing else than the creation. After obtaining his degree, he went to France where he enrolled in turn at the Ecole des Beaux Arts and Ecole Metz Camondo Paris. He emerges holding an appropriate degree in architecture, interior design option of furnishing product creation. During 6 years, Michel Mbida works for a consulting firm in Paris. He is responsible for the design and creation. His works appear in magazines Elle and Marie Claire.

He returned to Cameroon. Three years later, he created structures and morphology, an SME. Its niche is found: use of tree species for its creation forms. "We design and layout of home and furniture.

After 7 years of existence, everything seems to work well for his business. He has advised on several major accomplishments like the plateau of the television news of CRTV, the hall of the Ministry of Tourism, the design of several buildings and residences in Yaounde, the decoration of the hotel Hilton the ceremony of the African Golden Ball 2003 organized by MTN, etc.. At the recent International Exhibition Company, the visitors fell under the spell of his music: a blend of traditional and modern materials. Therefore, everything has been sold and the financial benefits are significant. Michel Mbida acknowledges with malice, but gives no figure. Same
when asked about his sales after 7 years. He hesitates and says tersely: "I saw only that. It works." One thing is certain, however, its turnover is considerable. This is all that his client, initially consisting of expatriate and now very African, must pay between 60,000 and 300,000 CFA francs CFA to purchase a chair that, that lounge. For decorations, prices are negotiated in the same range or more.
All is not rosy for structure and morphology of Michel Mbida. The acquisition of its raw material has become a little more difficult lately. "Initially, people were calling us to come spontaneously gather dead wood and lianas when they had finished clearing their fields. But since they know that is to make furniture to sell, they sell us, too, "he says. On the other hand, he hopes to get support from the Ministry of SMEs, which will expand its unit for greater creation that reflects cultural diversity Cameroon.
