Mathieu Lehanneur
A comprehensive monograph on the visionary designer Matthieu Lehanneur, whose nature-inspired work blurs the boundaries between art and science Mathieu Lehanneur’s multidisciplinary practice spans art, architecture, product design, and technology. From his headquarters, dubbed ‘The Factory,’ near Paris, Lehanneur designs and produces a fascinating array of projects including: an award-winning air filter, a river plant aquarium, a permanent installation at the Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire, the choir of Saint-Hilaire Church, and, famously, the torch and cauldron for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. Lehanneur’s debut monograph reveals his design philosophy through 10 chapters organized around the determining 'principles' of his work. Featuring a trove of images – including preliminary studies and models, inspirations, renders, details, manufacturing photography, and press clippings – the book documents his distinctive approach to design.Readers will discover 80 key projects, from interior and object design to larger-scale projects and public infrastructures, each presented with a text description and extensive full-color visuals. A foreword by writer Spencer Bailey delves into Lehanneur’s practice in more detail, while a conversation with journalist Lucie Weeger reveals the designer’s inspirations and aspirations, and an essay by museum curator Constance Rubini takes a closer look at Lehanneur’s Olympic torch.A stunning object in its own right, the book features a distinctive cover inspired by the solid waves iconic of Lehanneur’s work, completing this multidimensional portrait of one of today’s leading creative visionaries.

Art of Working with the Mathieu Group M24
The Leech lattice Λ, the Conway group ∙O, and the Monster group M are immensely famous structures. They each grow out of the Mathieu group M24 and its underlying combinatorial structure, and play an important role in various branches of mathematics and in theoretical physics. Written by an expert in the field, this book provides a new generation of mathematicians with the intimate knowledge of M24 needed to understand these beautiful objects, and many others. It starts by exploring Steiner systems, before introducing the Miracle Octad Generator (MOG) as a device for working with the Steiner system S(5,8,24). Emphasizing how theoretical and computational approaches complement one another, the author describes how familiarity with M24 leads to the concept of 'symmetric generation' of groups. The final chapter brings together the various strands of the book to produce a nested chain of groups culminating in the largest Conway simple group Co1.
