Faithful to the concept of the “deconstructed Bauhaus” dear to the brand, the collection explores the tensions between the precepts of modernist design and contemporary approaches to deconstruction, representation and renewal.

“We started working as designers in a decade marked by political, social and artistic upheavals,” explains Christian Roth and Eric Domège, whose destabilizing creations frightened the prosaic optical conventions of the 1980s. “This approach allows us to look for new applications to the vocabulary we have worked to develop over the past three decades, to dialogue with the upheavals and complexity of modern life in a hopeful, upbeat way And festive, “specify Roth and Domège.

Among the most attractive innovations emerging from this inventory of designs is the return of Christian Roth’s emblematic “lens-in-lenstechnology. This technique, allowed the creators to experiment with new colors and new shapes reminiscent of Miami’s Art Deco glamour architecture.

On the Ventriloquist model in particular, a graphic frame with sharp edges evoking postmodern architecture, with its ornamental geometry and its decorative steel body; On the model Matos, a classic P3 mount with new proportions more generous, revisited in bold colors; And on the Archive 1993 model, one of the most emblematic forms of Christian Roth reinterpreted in an explosion of colors and endowed with a delicate steel structure.
