For Milan Design Week 2026, one of the global design scene's most unmissable events, Longchamp is bringing an exclusive installation—designed in partnership with French designer Patrick Jouin—to its flagship store on Via della Spiga, Milan. Championing creation once again, this collaboration continues the Maison's engagement with art and design, building on other partnerships with studios and artists such as Studio Högl Borowski and Pierre Renart.

Here, Longchamp explores all-new realms of expression, where function, material and emotion converge seamlessly. This new collaboration is fueled by a shared vision of responsible, lasting and stylish design, in which innovation and classic artisan craftsmanship go hand in hand.

The recipient of numerous international awards, Patrick Jouin has adopted an approach where design, engineering and function work together in harmony. Jouin, whose work has been displayed in institutions like the Centre Pompidou and the MoMA, designs objects whose apparent simplicity reveals meticulous attention to detail.

This vision resonates with that of Longchamp, a brand whose creations are guided by responsibility, authentic materials and lasting quality. Following multiple collaborations in the world of furniture design, the Maison returns to Milan Design Week by inviting Patrick Jouin to design an original installation. For this edition, the designer has reworked some of his catalog's most iconic pieces with classic Longchamp touches: DROP tables and side tables, crafted from spun steel and enameled by hand, feature watercolor-like tops in shades of Lumière and Héritage Green, while the OLO leather chair is enhanced by signature painted edging.

The crowning jewel of this collaboration is a new portable lamp created together with Longchamp: presented in micro-perforated full-grain leather coupled with an oakwood base, it translates the codes of the iconic Le Pliage® bag into a limited-edition modular piece. Presented in Milan first, then made available for purchase, these creations embody the coming together of modern design and expert leather craftsmanship.
