                                                In 1917 Marcel Duchamp submitted a urinal to an art exhibition as a piece
                                                of sculpture, thus transforming a utilitarian object into a design object. He is
                                                considered by many art historians as the father of contemporary art, and he
                                                certainly left his mark.

                                                Street Art and Design both carry on from where he left off: rethinking the
                                                concept of utility, creating links between esthetics, public spaces and utility.
                                                DELABIE’s products are designed in the spirit of Street Art: combining utility
                                                with the style esthetic of public spaces, aiming to bring a touch of beauty into
                                                people’s daily lives.
