The New Exhibition from Mathieu Lehanneur channels high fashion & the humble American hot dog stand…


The Tools Gallery in Paris will next week launch a new exhibition from the renowned French designer, Mathieu Lehanneur, appropriately titled Delicious.

The exhibition will comprise a range of metal storage units with the effect of unusual and beguiling quilted surfaces. The structure of the individual pieces draws upon the metal sheeting used to create the standard American hot dog stand; furthermore, it seeks to blend this with the quilted design you would usually associate with the designs of Coco Chanel.

Lehanneur will present the exciting new project as part of the exhibition, Métal(s),which is intended to focus primarily on metal forming techniques. The exhibition will also feature works from designers such as Chris Kabel and Oskar Zieta.
