The Belgian design scene is vast and diverse. Belgian institutions are always at the forefront of supporting the people, new projects and products that make our country dynamic and unique.
Lionel Jadot is the Maison&Objet designer of the year
Lionel Jadot was born in a chairmaking workshop in Brussels, where his family had crafted stylish chairs and sofas for six generations. The rest of his story unfolds like a novel fueled by a child's early passion for transforming workshop gleanings. Jadot creates unique works, favouring durable objects over disposable catalogue items. He is also an interior designer, recently completing the Mix, a hybrid hotel-living space in Brussels, collaboratively shaped with around fifty creators. This endeavour offers an unforgettable hospitality experience, fostering ecological, serene, and desirable design. Most of these “makers” are housed in his workshop in Zaventem, a proper breeding ground for talent. Selected for their ability to shake up the established order, they open the way for ecological, serene and desirable design.
