French lighting manufacturer Triode has a history of scouting and promoting unknown designers in France. They have now turned this eye to the USA, representing emerging American design in France through an annual exhibition of new products and incorporation of many of these into Triode's production line.

They are kicking this off with the aptly named exhibition, American Design in Paris, featuring the work of designers who are "focused on their roots as part of their identity." Participants include Jason Miller, Andrew Moe, Jonah Takagi, John Pomp and Bassam & Fellow.
