Roche Bobois demonstrates its creative prowess in this Spring-Summer 2022 collection, showcasing its ability both to innovate and to reinvent its iconic pieces in a way that reflects current trends.
- The Speed Up sideboard (designed by Sacha Lakic - 2005) is a fine example: a popular piece for more than 15 years for its distinctive 3D facade in glossy Daquacryl, it has now been reworked in wood, punctuated by 64 oak slats- each one unique. The Sense sofa also deserves a mention. This third-generation piece has drawn on technical developments (in terms of fabric, especially) to reveal a new graphic expression.
- The Domino, on the other hand, builds on the incredible tradition of the "modular" sofa at Roche Bobois, which started in 1971 with the Lounge, a precursor to the Mah Jong. Revisited by Sacha Lakic, it retains its seventies inspiration with luxurious, bicolour curves.
- Lastly, in continuation of these aspirations, the Aurea outdoor collection boasts impeccable finishes. Surprisingly, it is made of solid oak panels reclaimed from former SNCF freight cars that once transported mineral water and have since been thoroughly cleaned and purified. The outcome features soft lines and a velvety touch with delicate veins, available in a table, bench and folding chair…
This collection highlights the continuity of some of our iconic pieces and their capability of adapting to technical and aesthetic developments, and evolving and inspiring new interpretations over time.
