Description

The stone pines of the Villa Borgh è se in Roma serve as the guiding aesthetic for this light sofa by No é Duchaufour Lawrance for fellow French design house La Chance. The lattice of a forest's branches is translated by the metal structure and back cushions, suggesting a restful landscape both visually and physically. It's no wonder that No é started out as a sculptor. His work embraces the ideals of "niwa," the bijoux garden at the heart of a traditional Japanese home. No é is dedicated to reviving "the notion of 'alive' or 'living'" in the objects and spaces he designs, akin to an organic form growing with use and its user. This approach made him a natural to collaborate with La Chance, the new Paris-based design house emphasizing furniture, lighting and rugs with a "strong personality" made from "noble, durable and natural materials" and all in "European human-size facilities" Got to love that. La Chance is also entrepreneur Jean-Baptiste Souletie and architect Louise Breguetbeen, who got together in life and work because of, well, la chance! The French duo have lived in India and China; designed offices in London and built homes in Haiti; and have lent their know-how to established luxury companies and start-ups firms. La Chance launched at the 2012 Milan Salone at Tom Dixon's MOST, a 5-building design world in Milan's National Museum of Science and Technology. The debut collection was based on the concept of Jekyll & Hyde — one item, two moods (hence No é offering Borghese in either shades of greens or monochromatic blacks/greys). We zeroed in on their colorful exhibition inside the railway hall, and it was love at first sight.
