On the outskirts of Paris ,
designer Mathieu Lehanneur 's new creation and exhibition center is housed in an industrial building. His brand's entire operations are now housed in a single space called "
The Factory ." There is plenty of room for the designer to design, develop and sell his creations. The site houses his headquarters, office, workshop and exhibition space, and was designed as a place for experimentation.
Spanning 800 square meters,
the building houses the entire ecosystem of Lehanneur's creations – always inspired by nature, science and history. His biomorphic creations, such as the
Familyscape sofa , the
Deep Time chandelier and the
Elephant armchair , are displayed and used to dress the space.

The design of "
The Factory " reflects Mathieu Lehanneur's approach to design. By incorporating functionality, inspiration and custom technological tools, the site creates a rare aesthetic that blends natural elements in harmony with somewhat aseptic spaces, which serve to highlight the biomorphic creations.

Below we list the main characteristics of the French designer's work, which masterfully reflects the spirit of the current times:
Multifunctional design: This approach aims to optimize the use of resources by offering versatility and efficiency. A single piece can serve different purposes, adapting to the most varied needs. Inspiration from nature, science and history: Mathieu Lehanneur's creations are influenced by a variety of sources. His work combines organic elements, scientific principles and historical references. By drawing inspiration from nature, the designer can incorporate shapes, patterns and textures found in a wide range of living beings and ecosystems. Biomorphic Creations: The French designer's biomorphic creations are inspired by and modeled after organic forms found in nature. "Biomorphic" means that these creations have shapes, patterns, or features that resemble biological or organic elements.
Focus on experimentation: Lehanneur explores new materials, technologies and concepts, often pushing the traditional boundaries of design. (Felipe Ribon/Frame/CASACOR)
