An exclusive launch at Parisian’s most iconic department store

To celebrate its Parisian debut, Source Édition is proud to present a curated selection of its first collection at Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche, as part of Paris Design Week 2025.

Located in the heart of the Left Bank, Le Bon Marché is more than a department store—it is a cultural destination, known for its discerning eye and elegant curations. Within a dedicated space on the second floor, Source Édition unveils its first pieces available for purchase: faithful reissues of iconic furniture, lighting, and accessories from the 1950s to 1970s.

Each object is produced with the same ethos that guides all of Source Édition’s work—respect for the original design, excellence in craftsmanship, and a commitment to sustainability. All pieces are made in France and Italy, in close collaboration with designers’ families, archives, and the Mobilier national.

This presentation marks the exclusive retail launch of Source Édition. It is the first time the collection is offered for sale, allowing visitors, collectors, and design lovers to take home a fragment of modernist history—revived with rigor and intention.

A New Chapter for Historic Design

With this presence at Le Bon Marché, Source Édition bridges design and contemporary retail. The pieces on display invite the visitors to reconnect with the radical elegance of post-war creation, and to support a vision of design rooted in transmission, authenticity, and renewal.

A dialogue between memory, matter, and meaning As part of Paris Design Week 2025, Source Édition is honored to present the complete exhibition of its first collection within an exceptional setting: the Chapelle of the Manufacture des Gobelins, at the heart of the Mobilier national. A place steeped in history, the Chapelle becomes a sanctuary for design. Beneath its vaulted ceiling, iconic pieces from the golden age of modernism—1950s to 1970s—are reawakened. Each object has been reissued with meticulous care, in dialogue with the designers’ estates and under the guidance of the Mobilier national, the French institution dedicated to preserving and promoting design heritage. This exhibition is more than a presentation: it is an experience. It invites visitors to rediscover the intelligence of form, the nobility of materials, and the poetry of function. The scenography, developed especially for the site, highlights the timeless relevance of these historic works and the savoir-faire that brings them back to life. All pieces are manufactured in France and Italy by master artisans and industrials, using sustainable, traceable materials. Faithful to the original designs—yet rooted in contemporary values—each re-edition is both a tribute and a new beginning. A Historic Partnership This exhibition is the result of an ongoing collaboration between Source Édition and the Mobilier national. Together, we share a mission: to preserve, activate, and transmit the material culture of design. With this collection, Source Édition renews the stories written by visionary designers—André Monpoix, Turenne Chevallereau, Claude Courtecuisse, Ben Swildens and Giuseppe Rivadossi —while anchoring them firmly in the present.

BLOG | The art of the plaque: why every Source Édition piece is signed

In the world of reissued design furniture, authenticity is not optional. It is a promise. At Source Édition, every reissued piece, whether an iconic lounge chair, a modular coffee table or a 1970s light fixture, carries a laser-engraved aluminum plaque. This small but important detail reflects our commitment to transparency, traceability and respect for original design. The plaque certifies that you are buying a faithful reissue produced with the designer’s estate’s approval and according to original technical specifications. It is a true seal of authentic design and a long-term value for collectors, interior designers and design-conscious customers. Each plaque features a unique number, ensuring full traceability. We can track the designer, the year of the original creation, the workshop where it was made and the materials used. This level of transparency is essential in the high-end furniture market, where provenance is key. For us, reissuing historical design pieces means nothing should be left to chance. The plaque makes this belief visible. Each piece has a story, a source and a soul, serving not only as proof of quality but also as a tribute to the original designer. It reminds us that this is not simply a copy but a heritage piece, revived with full respect for the creative vision and spirit of mid-century designers like Claude Courtecuisse, André Monpoix and Turenne Chevallereau. For interior designers, boutique hotels and private clients, this plaque is also a mark of quality that adds depth, credibility and distinction to any project. It also reflects our commitment to ethical and sustainable design, local and responsible European production primarily in France and Italy, craftsmanship with noble materials and the cultural transmission of iconic 20th-century design. At Source Édition, each engraved plaque is more than a label. It is a promise to revive the masterpieces of the 1950s to 1970s with authenticity, integrity and care, offering furniture that is ready to begin a new chapter in your home or project.
