Working in collaboration with Marset, Christophe Mathieu has developed the innovative Palosanto Outdoor Wall Lamp, a fixture designed to accentuate your outdoor spaces.
The diffuser can be rotated, allowing you to use it to highlight architectural details, illuminate a path, or bathe a feature in a pool of warm light. Incorporating cutting-edge LED technology into the design, the Palosanto is an endearing piece of contemporary design, perfect for a huge variety of outdoor spaces.
His name is French and he was born in Germany, but his Spanish accent points to the Canary Islands, where he grew up. He finished his degree in interior design in Barcelona in the mid 1980's and afterward headed to Milan, discovering industrial design. He collaborated with many architects in the development of products for several companies such as De Padova, Menphis and Driade. He moved to Spain in the 1960’s and lives now in Barcelona where he is one of Marset’s veteran designers. 30 years ago Christophe Mathieu transitioned from being a professional competitive swimmer to the world of design. This makes him open to unforeseen events in life and does not discount the possibility of one day maybe leaving it all and doing something totally different.
