A designer with a multi-faceted and highly
distinctive œuvre, Mathilde Bretillot questions the contemporary
environment while attempting to provide global responses that are at once
bright, lively and sensitive. She started her career working in Milan, London
and Asia. This international experience, her travels and her in-built curiosity
have been the source of her inspiration and her passion for working in
innovative ways with different forms of know-how. Her multidisciplinary
practice also involves teaching at a number of art and design schools,
including ESAD Reims, La Cambre and École Camondo, and on numerous workshops as well as sitting on judging
panels in France and abroad. As well as running her own agency, she co-founded
International Design Expeditions (IDE) in 2014, and is now the organisation's
president and creative director.
