Lionel Jadot
Lionel Jadot is as much an inventor as he is a designer. The Brussels-based furniture maker and tinkerer defies categorization with a body of work linked only by the use of repurposed materials. His one-of-a-kind chairs, statement-making tables and eclectic lamps overflow with personality and charm. Jadot is also an interior architect known for creating energetic spaces with a retro yet futuristic feel.
Jadot comes from a long line of custom furniture designers and was born in Belgium in an apartment above a design studio. As a child, he would walk through the family workshop every day after school, picking up the scrap material to experiment with in his room. He took over the family business when he was just 18, and the self-taught Jadot reveled in the freedom to create whatever designs he wanted.
At his eponymous atelier, Jadot works on projects for private homes as well as restaurants, bars and hotels. While his designs and interiors can look chaotic at first glance — with his stone chairs and imposing Organic Modern-style tables of marble and wood — the disparate elements come together in a harmonious balance underpinned by quality and craftsmanship.
In 2019, Jadot also established Zaventem Ateliers in the village of Zaventem outside of Brussels. The former industrial space has become a hub for a community of established and emerging designers and artists.
Jadot's creations are regularly exhibited at design fairs and events in Brussels and around Europe. In 2020, his Crushed Seat (2018) was presented by Todd Merrill Studio director Dallas Dunn at the Brussels Collectible Design Fair. His work was once again exhibited at the Collectible Design Fair 2021 with Antwerp-based Everyday Gallery. Jadot has also expanded into Milan, Italy, with a project called Baranzate Ateliers, which enjoyed a strong showing at Milan Design Week 2022.

- Functional art Floor Lamp "Open Eyes" by Lionel JadotBy Lionel JadotLocated in Antwerp, BEOpen eyes floor lamp by Lionel Jadot. Functional art; Lionel Jadot; Belgian art Born in Brussels in 1969, Lionel Jadot is an interior designer, artist, designer, filmmaker, adventurer. But all at once, preferably. Lionel Jadot is firing on all cylinders. ‘I never throw anything, I pick up everything. Not having a green thumb, I’m trying cuttings, weddings against nature. I never forget a line.’ He’s inviting us in subtle, off-beat worlds, on the edge of reality. Its material is made of dilated time. A wandering spirit, he seeks a protective balance in a hostile world. It is his constant questioning: what happens to the place where we live? For Lionel Jadot, everything is object, everything is history. He draws from other places, other times, and seeks what’s linking them. He sews, stitches, unpicks, blends materials, combines eras. He will enshrine some wood essence in metal, some mineral in a plant, the old in the new. ‘I take extra care to the joint between two materials.’ With him, there is always some play in the parts, as in a piece of machinery. From a kingdom to another, he provokes organic, viral growths, generating energy. Linking past and future, he never forgets a line. ‘I accumulate them.’ He’s inviting us in subtle worlds, off-beat, on the edge of reality. Are we in 1930 or in 2030? Both, no doubt. Its material is made of dilated time. The eye goes hand in hand with the ear. ‘When I walk into a place, I listen to the good (or bad) it does to me. An ineffable feeling.’ He recreates mutant buildings, like the future Royal Botanique, a 5 stars hotel housed in the Church of the Gesu, a former convent behind a 1940 façade. He talks about a ‘hotel object’, which he holds and turns around in his hand. A wandering spirit, he’s flirting with retro-futurism. The Jam, another hotel, is intended for urban travelers, fans of swiftness, fluidity and hospitality. He designs interiors as a set of objects: a motorcycle cut in concrete becomes a bar counter. He finds gothic cartoon echoes, from the likes of Moebius, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Enki Bilal, sets from Garage Hermétique and Blade Runner, a protective balance in a hostile world. Discovering Jadot’s little cosmos of collected and accumulated goods, it becomes clear that every element has its own story. I tried to collect them and in turn, devour them in the coming paragraphs. But first: the show is best experienced seated, barring the distinction between object of use and object of attention, they invite for different types of conversation. The seats, chairs, thrones all make us think of our own physical comportment, and of how the seat lends grandeur to the person sitting on it, by crowning its presence. The crackling floor, the felt walls and the diffuse light slow you down into an oddly absorbing environment, in which you are left puzzled. In the eclectic collages of objects, bits and pieces collected all over the world come together in ways practical, and logical, though possibly only in the artist’s mind. All his finds eventually seem to fall into place. Starting with the mere conception of a chair, rather than with a set-out plan or sketch, the works are intuitively construed out of an archive that one can only imagine the dimensions of. Things forgotten by others, precious for him, were all once designed for their own purpose. Here they find their fit as a base, a closing system or a balancing element. The first piece that opens the exhibition, the most throne-like of all seats in the show, builds around a chair of his grandmother, protected by mops, and harassed with bed springs. As you enter the space, you pass by a shell leaning over a yellow seat that stems from his old Mustang, and find a white stool piece with Mexican leather dog training whips, the white building blocks of which turn out to be dried molding material, as found and broken out of a bucket by workers every morning. Further, the stone piece that reminds one of the stone age, is indeed made of 400 million old rocks, and the soft seats are lent from construction, where these strokes of textile carry up the heaviest goods. In the corner, but as you walk this walk please be seated on any of the thrones and experience the work for a moment, the green fluffy cover is made by XXXX who remakes cartographies of warzones, one of which is here mounted on a flexible fishing chair. On an experience level, the conversation chair enhances self-confidence, while putting you literally in a good spot with the person you’re conversing with. The lamp perfectly shows the playful Cadavre Exquis...Category
