ontwerp Jean-Marie Massaud, een collectie van banken met zelfverzekerde elegantie. De vormgeving doet denken aan modellen die in de jaren tachtig gangbaar waren. Met een luchtigheid door bodemspeling. Slanke T-vormige metalen poten met Ruthenium afwerking. Het frame is een mix van massief beuken, populier en berkenhout. Elastische gordels vormen een basis waar hoogwaardige moderne schuimen worden gecombineerd met een vulling van ganzendons en een synthetisch staafje. De rug en armleuning kussens in envelop model omsluiten je en zorgen voor een comfortabel zit waar in het heerlijk ontspant.
Jean-Marie Massaud, Poltrona Frau John John
Born in Toulouse in 1966, Jean-Marie Massaud graduated in 1990 from Les Ateliers, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle, Paris. He began to work both in Asia and in France, finally opening his own office in Paris in 1994. Since than, he has dedicated himself to industrial and furniture design, building important relationships with brands such as Authentics, Baccarat and Magis. His collaboration with Marc Berthier and his work in the field of town planning led him towards design and architecture. He is concerned with design in various contexts, industrial products and furniture. His contextual approach centres on research into the essential, within which the individual remains the centre of attention. It is a work upheld by research into the senses, magic, and vital emotion which brings him to work with very different brands: Cassina, Poltrona Frau, Cappellini, Cacharel, Lancôme, Tronconi and Yamaha offshore.
His works have been awarded several prizes and many of his designs are nowadays on show in the design collections of the major museums worldwide: from Amsterdam, Chicago, London, Paris and Zurich: from the permanent collection of the Musée National d’Art Moderne de Paris to the permanent collections of the Museum für Gestaltung, Zürich, of The Chicago Athenaeum- Museum of Architecture and Design, of The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam and of The Musée des arts Décoratifs, Paris.
