The client : Mathieu Lehanneur
The French designer Mathieu Lehanneur is on the forefront of the international design scene. His designs are inspired by nature while exploring new technologies. The artist thrives on creating spectacular projects that are intended to enchant and to encourage wellbeing.
The Challenge : How to Recreate the World's Ocean Colors
For a collection of 50 faïence works, Mathieu Lehanneur sought detailed and accurate representations of the world’s oceans and seas to serve as inspiration. He required the necessary information to select 50 distinct shades of blue for his collection and sought to depict the natural colors of these bodies of water to accurately capture their beauty and diversity.
The Solution : Unique Natural Color Satellite Imagery
PlanetObserver’s satellite imagery was the perfect inspiration for Mathieu Lehanneur. Based on the designer’s selection of 50 spots scattered across the planet, PlanetObserver team provided all high-definition images from its imagery basemap PlanetSAT Global. Captured by various satellites, PlanetObserver’s imagery is processed in natural colors and then fine-tuned by our experts to ensure consistency with the planet’s true color.
The satellite images gave the designer detailed and accurate representations of the world’s oceans and seas. This allowed Mathieu Lehanneur to select 50 distinct shades of blue for his collection and accurately capture the natural beauty and diversity of these bodies of water.
As a result, Mathieu Lehanneur presented “50 Seas”, a collection of 50 faïence works inspired by the many shades of blue of the oceans and seas of the world. Onshow at Christie’s in Paris, this exhibition which highlighted the beauties of the ocean was a great success.
