Designer Teddy Sanches was still a student at École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle – Les Ateliers in Paris when his Envahisseurs Battle – a new genre of hip-hop battle at the interface of design and dance – took over Centre Pompidou. Graduating in 2019, this was also the year he won the Audi Talents prize for the film and happening he developed around this project, whose theme is the circle. Hip-hop is his constant companion, serving as a fertile playground for the needs of tomorrow’s world, and as a way of fusing scenography with urban cultures. In summer 2021, Sanches held an exhibition and performance weekend at Palais de Tokyo.
He is a co-founder of the Hall Haus designers’ group. For their À l’Oeuvre residency at Fondation Lafayette Anticipations in Paris, the group created the Curry Mango folding chair, designed to represent their identity.
