PROJECT DESCRIPTION

b. 1975 Normandie, France; lives and works in Paris, France

plex’eat, 2020

Stating that all the solutions he’d seen to date to insure safe dining had looked to him like prisons, French designer Christophe Gernigon created what he thinks of as a kind of a bell, an elegant form made from bent plexi, sized and configured to prevent claustrophobia, and to avoid interfering with pendant lamps, ubiquitous in dining spaces. Gernigon is currently looking into the production possibilities.
