Très attendue, la première monographie éponyme d’India Mahdavi nous plonge au cœur du processus créatif de celle qui, depuis la création de son studio en 2000, a porté sur la scène internationale une œuvre intime et libre – et dont la pratique transverse, entre architecture, architecture d’intérieur, design d’objets et de mobilier, incarne un art de vivre cosmopolite et joyeux, par-delà genres et frontières.
L’ouvrage offre une perspective inédite sur la genèse de certaines des réalisations les plus emblématiques d’India Mahdavi, à travers un éventail d’inspirations, d’esquisses, de dessins et maquettes ayant présidé à des projets signatures comme The Gallery at Sketch à Londres, les restaurants Ladurée à Los Angeles, Tokyo et Genève, ou encore l’Hôtel du Cloître à Arles.
Un entretien exhaustif mené par Javier F. Contreras, responsable du Département Architecture d’intérieur de la HEAD (Genève), et un cahier de photographies personnelles contribuent à faire de ce volume, sous la direction artistique du Studio Achermann, une rétrospective passionnante des vingt premières années de la carrière d’India Mahdavi.

Architecte, designer, et scénographe, India Mahdavi vit et travaille à Paris.
Son studio, créé en 2000, se distingue par la diversité de ses projets à l’international qui, de l'architecture au design d'intérieur, à la scénographie et au design de mobilier et d’objets, manifestent une réelle transdisciplinarité.
En vingt ans, India Mahdavi a fait de la rue Las Cases un véritable écosystème – y installant successivement son studio, un showroom de mobilier puis une boutique dédiée aux petits objets. En 2020, elle a inauguré rue de Bellechasse, la Project Room, un espace d'expression libre où se succèdent décors, cartes blanches et événements.
Connue pour ses environnements uniques, qui tous célèbrent à leur manière un art de vivre cosmopolite, India Mahdavi exprime une vision moderne du confort et de l'élégance – non sans un certain sens de l'humour.
Polyglotte et polychrome, India Mahdavi est devenue une référence, développant à travers chacune de ses réalisations un vocabulaire singulier.


This long-overdue, eponymous first monograph of India Mahdavi takes us on a retrospective journey through the most emblematic realizations of the world-renowned Paris-based interior designer, internationally praised for her unique sense of color.
Offering an unprecedented perspective on Mahdavi’s creative process, this book highlights a comprehensive array of the inspirational images, drawings, sketches, and models that evolved into some of her most celebrated projects including The Gallery at Sketch in London, Ladurée in Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Geneva, as well as Hôtel du Cloître in Arles, and many others. Admired for her color sensibility, this book highlights the depth and breadth of Mahdavi’s talent and the variety of her projects.
This deluxe tome, art directed by Studio Achermann, features the tactile, large format book in a bespoke, patterned slipcase, and includes an additional booklet featuring Mahdavi’s photography that captures details, patterns, colors and more from her travels around the world. Additionally, an extensive interview with Mahdavi by Dr. Javier F. Contreras, dean of the Department of Interior Architecture at HEAD in Geneva (Switzerland), contributes to make this volume an insightful celebration of the first twenty one years of India Mahdavi’s singular career.

Architect, designer and scenographer, India Mahdavi is based in Paris.
Her studio, created in 2000, is known for the diversity of its international projects which explore the fields of architecture, interior design, scenography, furniture and object design — all based in one single street, rue Las Cases.
India Mahdavi is known for creating unique environments, combining a modern sense of comfort and elegance with color and humour – a cross-cultured art de vivre.
Polyglotte & polychrome, India Mahdavi has become a signature, offering a special vocabulary that is joyful, cosmopolite and elegant all at the same time.
