After having studied finance in his youth, the artist and designer Hubert De Gall is now known as one of the most original voices in the French design world. He applies his eclecticism to furnishings, accessories, design objects, jewelry, and installations. Le Gall is inspired by traditional shapes, and transforms them into contemporary translations of flora and fauna, each with a touch of tongue-in-cheek. In his Montmarte altelier, which formerly belonged to the painter Pierre Bonnard, he creates pieces from varied materials. His collection of bronze jewelry were inspired by nature, revealing his refined skill of debunking the decorative component of the material using a vaguely playful approach. The museum/shop Mudec in Milan is selling a selection of his pieces, including the entertaining, flower pot shaped Pot des fleurs.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
