LDW Highlights
For the 2026 edition of Lisbon Design Week, Made In Situ presents a selection of pieces drawn from its seven collections, including, for the first time in Portugal, the works from the ‘Chêne et Liège’ collection.
This unique retrospective offers, for the first time, an opportunity to bring all the collections together. The encounters, craftsmanship, materials, and explorations embodied in each object will meet, interact, and complement one another, offering a comprehensive vision of Made In Situ and reflecting the full range of territories explored so far.
They will showcase ceramic pieces from the Barro Negro collection, furniture from Burnt Cork and Azulejos, candleholders in Bronze & Beeswax, pieces from Chêne et Liège (cork), Caretos stools, and the Xisto shelf and table.
By bringing together such a variety of materials and objects, visitors can experience how Made In Situ’s approach adapts to each material, scale, and context, always responding to the uniqueness of each situation.
They also propose screenings of their films during the week, which will allow for a more immersive experience at the heart of these territories, highlighting the richness of the context explored, the encounters, the landscapes, and everything that contributed to the growth of these creations.
Founded in 2017, when Noé moved to Lisbon—a city deeply connected to its natural environment and an ideal starting point for research in Portugal—Made In Situ explores a wide variety of local materials and techniques. These include black ceramics from Tondela, cork from the Algarve, tiles from Viúva Lamego, bronze from Peniche, beeswax candles from Fátima, a collection of wooden stools inspired by the vibrant Caretos festivities, and schist from the Douro Valley.
Through these collaborations, Made In Situ reflects geological, cultural, and artisanal territories, forming a unique travel diary that continues to evolve.
“The designed pieces are the fruits of my adventures, explorations of geological and biological textures, patterns, materials and their related techniques. Above all, my stimulation comes from human knowledge and sensitivity, linking to and embedded in each specific place.”

Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, a multidisciplinary French designer, is known for his sensitivity to materials, details, and organic forms. Trained as a sculptor, he possesses a natural ability to bridge space and object, blending artistic vision with precision. His work spans interior architecture (Sketch in London, Air France lounges), furniture design (Ceccotti, Ligne Roset, Hermès), and custom pieces for clients and institutions like Le Mobilier National and Villa Medici.
In 2017, Noé moved to Lisbon, a city more connected to natural environments and an ideal place to begin his research in Portugal for Made In Situ. The project explores various Portuguese materials and techniques, including black ceramics from Tondela, cork from the Algarve, tiles from Viúva Lamego, bronze from Peniche, beeswax candles from Fátima, a collection of wooden stools inspired by the vibrant Caretos festivities, and schist from the Douro Valley.
