Collection: Mathieu Matégot

Mathieu Matégot (1910 - 2001) was a versatile, independent, and self-taught Hungarian designer, architect and artist who spent most of his life in his beloved Paris, where he for the first time settled in 1931 after finishing his studies at Budapest's School of Art and Architecture.

In 1939, Matégot signed up as a volunteer for the French army but was held as a prisoner in Germany until he escaped in 1944. This wartime captivity was an important time, career-wise, for Matégot as it was here he was able to familiarise himself with the innovative material and technique, Rigitulle - which later would become a characteristic trait of his.

The significance of lighting design in interior spaces extends far beyond mere illumination; it is an art form that enhances the ambiance, mood, and aesthetic appeal of any environment. The incorporation of Luxury Lighting, Fancy Hanging Lights, and Bedroom Wall Lamps epitomizes the transformative power of well-considered lighting. Luxury lighting fixtures not only serve as a source of light but also as centerpieces that command attention, imbuing spaces with a sense of elegance and exclusivity. Fancy hanging lights add a layer of sophistication and style, creating focal points that can elevate the overall design scheme of a room. Meanwhile, bedroom wall lamps offer a practical yet stylish lighting solution, providing focused illumination for reading or relaxation without compromising on design. Together, these elements underscore the importance of lighting design in creating atmospheric, functional, and visually appealing spaces, showcasing how strategic lighting choices can profoundly impact the experience of a space.
