The Design

About Chloe Fauteuil

Chloe est un fauteuil dont les lignes droites se distinguent et qui, par le jeu des angles, atteint ce design minimaliste et imposant qui domine Minimal Studio. Son inspiration principale était la nécessité de créer une grande pièce évoquant simultanément les sensations primordiales d'équilibre et de « sur le point de se briser ». Le concept de ce projet repose sur sa géométrie élancée. Son ossature est réalisée en chêne français teinté, formant une structure géométrique identifiable à l'esthétique générale et au concept de la marque.
