About the Item

This Bernard Govin desk is the only one currently on the market. Its design is as precise as the other pieces by this designer. The workmanship is of the highest quality. Bernard Govin is a French designer and interior designer who was born in 1940. Throughout his life, he has created a series of pieces whose fluid aesthetic, full of bold, futuristic curves, continues to seduce. He joined Ligne Roset in the late 60s. After studying at the Duperré School of Applied Arts and the Institute of Industrial Aesthetics, he opened his own agency in 1963. His research focused on new materials. In 1966, he exhibited an emblematic work at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs (SAD): the Asmara floor chair, published by Ligne Roset in 1967. At the 1972 SAD, still with Ligne Roset, he presented the Dunes chair. His innovative pieces are surprising in their inventiveness and modernity. Bernard Govin went on to create other models in collaboration with various publishers before moving to the South of France to design interiors.
