The Orso Ottoman is a low rectangular piece by Mathieu Delacroix, part of the Orso collection.
Its form is compact and spare: a rectangular block with softly rounded corners and edges, resting on a slender dark plinth that is slightly recessed beneath the volume. The squat proportions keep the piece low to the ground. From the front, the recessed base creates a slight visual lift that stops the block from sitting flat on the floor.
The piece is upholstered in a light brownish-grey textile with a suede-like surface. The fabric is subtle at close range and consistent across the Orso collection without requiring active coordination with other pieces.
The Ottoman belongs to the Orso seating family alongside the sofa, armchair, chaise longue, and divan. Mathieu Delacroix built the collection around a consistent vocabulary: one textile register, one set of proportional decisions, adapted across distinct seating formats. The Ottoman is the most reduced expression of that approach.

About
Mathieu Delacroix
Mathieu Delacroix is a French designer based in Paris, working across object, furniture, and interior design. A graduate of the École Supérieure d'Art et Design de Saint-Étienne (2016), he also studied at Nagoya City University in Japan, an experience that continues to inform his approach to form, material, and the cultural weight carried by everyday objects.
His early work earned international recognition at Dubai Design Week, the Milan Design Week, and PAD London. He also won First Prize in the Cinna Young Talent competition for his Tasso vase series. Alongside collaborations with studios including Guillaume Delvigne, Frédéric Forest & Clémentine Giaconia, and RDAI, Delacroix maintains an independent practice rooted in drawing, emotion, and material exploration.
His design approach seeks to reconnect objects with lived experience, bringing sensitivity, clarity, and depth to everyday forms. Through ongoing collaborations with French and international companies and design galleries, his work explores the territory between design and art. His projects have been covered across press, web, and radio, and shown in exhibitions in France and internationally.
His work is available on Monde Singulier.
