The offerings were designed by Guillaume Delvigne and the creator took visual cues from a well-known Henri Matisse painting from 1950, 'Les Mille et Une Nuits.' Unsurprisingly the Maison Matisse x Guillaume Delvigne capsule goes by the same name. It is not often that one comes across a collection of office accessories, inspired by [great paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-mattel-x-moma). The collaborators likely do this in a bid to elevate the workplace aesthetic and experiment with what they can get away with. Guillaume Delvigne employed what has been deemed "the essence of Matisse's painting"—namely, "the original scissor-cut shapes and bold fields of color." He applied these style sensibilities to blocks of sliced cork which are the base of the office accessories.
