Matali Crasset (France 法國)

Matali Crasset is by training an industrial designer, a graduate of the Ateliers – E.N.S.C.I. (Workshops – National Higher School of Industrial Design). At the beginning of 2000, after her initial experience with Denis Santachiara Italy and with Philippe Starck in France, she set up her own studio in Paris called Matali Crasset Productions in a renovated former printing firm in the heart of Belleville. She considers design to be research, working from an off-centred position allowing to both serve daily routines and trace future scenarios. With both a knowledgeable and naive view of the world, she questions the obviousness of codes so as to facilitate her breaking these bonds.

Always in search of new territories to explore, Matali collaborates with eclectic worlds, from crafts to electronic music, from the textiles industry to fair trade, realising projects in set design, furniture, architecture, graphics; collaborations with artists such as Peter Halley, with young furniture-making companies, as well as with municipalities and communes. From her meetings, creative workshops, discussion and common desires, she works with different project leaders who nevertheless all have the same conviction that these collective processes result in plausible social bonding scenarios. It’s ultimately the core question of living together which defines her imaginative designs, writings and the sense of Matali’s work.

Matali Crasset畢業於法國國立高等設計學院，是一位專業的工業設計師。她曾跟隨意大利著名傢具設計師Denis Santachiara及法國設計大師 Philippe Starck工作，更被譽為 Philippe Starck 接班人。其後於2000年初， Matali在巴黎創辦了個人工作室「Matali Crasset Productions」。工作室位於貝爾維爾的中心地段，前身是印刷公司，翻新後成為Matali的個人工作室。對Matali而言，設計需經過詳細的資料搜集，並須拋開主觀思想，才能處理好日常的設計工作， 甚至預測未來的潮流走勢。憑藉一顆對世界既充滿認知又滿載童趣的心，不斷挑戰現有的規範，衝破固有枷鎖，因為她認為設計，就是要給人自由與驚喜。

Matali喜歡探索新事物，與不同範疇的單位合作，由工藝到電子音樂、由紡織業到公平貿易，作品涉獵佈景設計、傢俱、建築、平面。她亦與許多藝術家合作無間，例如Peter Halley、新派的傢俱廠商、甚至市政府及社區團體。 經年累月的合作企劃， 讓她明白到，透過這些互相合作的過程，能夠加強社會間的連繫，令社會變得團結和諧。對Matali來說，和諧並存是終極的核心問題，同時是她靈感的泉源，啟發她設計及寫出具獨特風格的作品。

一幅展現群體和諧的圖畫，一群面孔是彩色面具的人，正如花束般共同依賴同樣的水源而生，和諧並存。

Design Concept 設計概念:

“THE CHIHUAHUA AND LION ROMANCE”

Inspired by the film The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty, "To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life.”
This piece is simply about love between a chihuahua and a lion, perhaps something that's not conventional, but there should be no rules or boundaries for love. It is about finding each other, drawing closer and feeling.

意念來自電影《發夢王大歷險》，「去看看世界吧，縱然會有危險；去看看牆的後方，站近一點，找尋另一半，並且去感受，這才是人生的目的。」
這設計說的是芝娃娃與獅子的故事，也許有些事情不如傳統，但愛就應該沒有規條、不分界限。當找到了對方，不妨親密一點、去感受對方所感受的。
