About the Item

Elegant and practical. Highly desirable blends of wood, leather and steel. Beautiful simplicity inspired by a Kennedy-style international way of life. The plywood structure of the round top and upper part of the leg are upholstered in all the softness of Pelle Frau leather, and equally stylish Canaletto walnut veneer that boasts all the natural warmth of wood. The feet and the end of the leg provide an exciting contrast in the gun-metal grey finished steel version. About the designer: Jean-Marie Massaud. Born in Toulouse in 1966, Jean-Marie Massaud graduated in 1990 from Les Ateliers, Ecole Nationale Supe´rieure de Cre´ation 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, Lanco^me, 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 Muse´e National d'Art Moderne de Paris to the permanent collections of the Museum fu¨r Gestaltung, Zu¨rich, of The Chicago Athenaeum- Museum of Architecture and Design, of The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam and of The Muse´e des arts De´coratifs, Paris.
