Longchamp x Patrick Jouin Edition

Patrick Jouin has partnered with Longchamp, a brand whose values resonate with his approach to design, materials, and functionality. Conceived as authentic Parisian apartments, Longchamp boutiques feature works of art seamlessly integrated into their interiors, making art accessible to a wider audience. Originally commissioned to enhance the furniture collection for the Milan boutique, Patrick Jouin saw this encounter with the brand’s universe naturally evolve into a comprehensive creative collaboration.

“With Longchamp, it wasn’t about simply replicating design codes, but about understanding the logic behind them, the logic of objects designed to move with you, to fold and unfold, and to fit naturally into everyday life.” - Patrick Jouin

"Longchamp has a longstanding commitment to promoting designers with a distinctive vision, supporting the creative scene, and celebrating craftsmanship in all its forms. With Patrick Jouin, we share the same vision of design: creating objects that are both functional and beautiful, designed to last and enhance everyday life. This collaboration emerged from a very fluid dialogue centered on materials, design, and functionality.”- Sophie Delafontaine, Artistic Director of Longchamp

Reflecting a meticulous production process, each design embodies the quest for a perfect balance of beauty and functionality. Pure lines interact with authentic materials like steel and leather, highlighting the remarkable craftsmanship involved and lending each object a singular identity. This exceptional set of furniture will subsequently be displayed in selected Longchamp boutiques.

Part of the Patrick Jouin Édition collection, the DROP side table and coffee table, in spun steel with exclusive, hand-poured enamel glazes, have been reinterpreted according to the codes of Longchamp. The table tops, composed of watercolor-like layers, thus feature vibrant splashes of the House’s signature Light Green and Heritage Green.

The same care has been applied to the OLO armchair, which completes the set. For the collaboration, its leather upholstery features edges dyed in Light Green, a subtle detail which underscores the bespoke nature of these pieces.

Reflecting a meticulous production process, each design embodies the quest for a perfect balance of beauty and functionality. Pure lines interact with authentic materials like steel and leather, highlighting the remarkable craftsmanship involved and lending each object a singular identity.

This exceptional set of furniture will go on show from April 2026 and will subsequently be displayed in selected Longchamp boutiques.

"The OLO line is built around a highly precise steel structure, which lends it a sense of lightness and elegance, enhanced by the movement of the leather. DROP, on the other hand, explores enameled steel, shaped and then enriched with successive layers of color, creating vibrant and deep surfaces. In both cases, the aim is to push the materials to their limits while preserving absolute formal purity." - Patrick Jouin

Beyond the personalization of existing designs, the collaboration embraces a shared project which epitomizes the spirit of the creative encounter: a Longchamp x Patrick Jouin lamp, the fruit of the convergence of their respective crafts. Envisaged as a portable and modulable object, the OSTARA lamp (in reference to the celebration of the spring equinox, a moment of luminous renewal) takes the form of a cone crafted from natural, authentic full-grain leather. The leather is worked using an innovative micro-perforation technique and fits seamlessly onto a French-made oak base, creating a subtle interplay of materials and contrasts.

Instantly recognizable, it adopts the codes of Longchamp’s iconic Le Pliage® collection, launched in 1993, with its snap fasteners, reinterpreting them to create a totally new piece. Rechargeable, fitted with an LED system, and made of recyclable materials, the Longchamp x Patrick Jouin lamp embodies a sustainable design approach combining technical innovation and fine craftsmanship.

" We treated the leather as a living material. It doesn’t simply cover the object; it gives it structure. It holds its shape, filters the light, and creates that presence, both supple and precise, that lies at the heart of the project. " - Patrick Jouin
