Created in 2023, downtown+ brings together carefully selected pieces from the Laffanour | Galerie Downtown collections and works by designers and artists from the young contemporary scene.

Over the decades, François Laffanour | Galerie Downtown has showcased the work of twentieth-century modernist architects, and gained worldwide recognition for its exhibitions of Jean Prouvé, Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret. Luna Laffanour, who initiated this project born of the desire to take a fresh look at the Laffanour | Galerie Downtown's heritage, intends to explore the contours of the design gallery. Luna proposes a new perspective on these collections through a cycle of exhibitions and fairs, both physical and digital, where art and design meet.

From October 12 to 16, 2024, Luna Laffanour - downtown+ presented its new exhibition 'italia' at the Hôtel de l'Industrie, alongside Design Miami. Paris.

This exhibition brought together Italian design masters such as Ettore Sottsass, Andrea Branzi, Gaetano Pesce, Joe Colombo and Superstudio, with the contemporary universe of painter Nicolas Mehdipour.

An original fusion of art and design, where iconic pieces and vibrant paintings questioned the relationship between tradition and modernity.
