Biography
A style
There are three components to the graphical leitmotiv that we find in the objects designed by Leonor Mataillet: silhouettes, plant patterns and typography.
The colours are sometimes “pop” - aniseed green or fuschia pink - , or more “classical”, with combinations of gold, black and white used to create graphic, luxurious collections.
She uses noble materials such as porcelain and linen for all her utilitarian objects: extremely refined lamps, bags and fabric designs with clean graphic lines.
An inspiration
In an interview she said: “Everything that is singular is plural”. In her designs, Leonor Mataillet uses those things of life that affect her and affect everyone at some time or another: life, nature, religion... Her objects are like intimate travel diaries filled with her personal story.
Recognition
BHV offers a home line designed by the artist. A European online sales site for luxury products, Artedona, describes Leonor Mataillet as one of France’s elite designers, while a major name in tableware, Bernardaud, sells an exclusive collection entitled “Or Noir” (Black Gold) – both marks of recognition by the home design experts and media: the French press and the Italians and Japanese are unanimous: Leonor Mataillet is an artist who will make a name for herself on the international home design scene.
