“I wanted to combine the sophistication of those who know the beauty of things and the simplicity of those who need nothing more.”
– Mathieu Lehanneur
The latest project of French designer Mathieu Lehanneur for the 2017 Paris AD Intérieurs exhibition is entitled Last Known Home. It is a kind of contemporary haven for aesthetes and hermits, where technology and natural materials blend to form a narrative of our civilisation: from flint to artificial intelligence, by way of tablets of stone, an aesthetic and conceptual universe in harmony under one roof.
Nature, beauty and technology also characterise the Beltrami philosophy. That is why it was an honour for us to take part in the Last Known Home project, where people and spaces are nourished by the beauty around them. There in the bedroom is the grand Beltrami bed with its luxurious linen in Autentica Fibra di Legno, produced from Northern European birch. “Sleeping in a tree was never so comfortable” jokes the designer.
