Beginning his career in furniture design in the 1930s, he embraced modern materials such as metal, glass and plastic, helping to shape the clean, functional aesthetic of post-war French design. Following his service in the French Resistance during the Second World War, Mathieu resumed his career, producing furniture and lighting for major companies including Air France. His innovative work was exhibited at the 1937 Paris World's Fair and remains an important example of French modernist design.
