Biography

Matali Crasset was born on July 28, 1965 in Chalons-en-Champagne into a family of farmers. She spent her childhood in the small village of Normée.[1] In 1988, she decided to continue her studies in Paris at the ENSCI (Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle) and obtained her diploma as an industrial designer in 1991.[2] She joined Denis Santachiara's studio in Milan in 1992 for a year, before joining Philippe Starck's studio in Paris in 1993, where she was appointed head of the Thomson Multimedia project, then Tim Thom, Thomson's design center. This collaboration lasted four years during which Matali Crasset developed under the direction of Philippe Starck "everyday objects at the service of people".[3] Matali Crasset has defined Philippe Starck as a complex personality in whom she admires the ability to free himself from constraints. Nevertheless, 1998 saw her creating her own company with her husband Francis Fichot, to "protect herself from Starck".[4]

Matali Crasset lives and works in Paris. She is the mother of two children, Popline and Arto.[5]

In 2011 and 2016, she is a guest of honour at the Festival international du livre d'art et du film.[6][7]

She was one of the artists selected by Brigitte Macron in 2017 for the redevelopment and decoration of the Elysée Palace.[8]
