Mathieu Matégot

Étagères Dédal Mathieu Matégot

Mathieu Matégot had a talent for creating natural forms using modern and, at the time, innovative materials such as pierced metal. In fact, he was the first to combine tubes and perforated metal sheets, a combination that can be seen in many of his designs.

Unlike many designers, who spend years perfecting their technique, Mathieu Matégot devoted just ten years to creating objects and furniture, the 1950s, leaving behind many objects that are now the delight of collectors.

Today, Gubi is reissuing several of these pieces, which are as functional and modern in appearance as ever, such as the Nagasaki coat stand and three-legged chair, which feature in the permanent collections of the Vitra Museum.

Mathieu Matégot

Mathieu Matégot (1910 - 2001) is one of the most famous French designers of the 50s.

He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Budapest. He then visited Italy then the United States and decided to settle in France.

In 1933, he began designing furniture with the use of rattan and metal. However, as the war was raging he decided to enroll and was later taken prisoner. After the Liberation, he devoted himself to creating objects in transparent metal and opened his own studio in Paris and Casablanca.

He showed his work in 1952 at the Salon des Artistes DĂ©corateurs. He rapidly became a global success. He particularly influenced the world of design with his avant-garde approach to forms and materials.
