…We started designing these objects not presenting the functional objects. One table and one chair seemed to us the ideal support for our work.

The chair inverts the process of creation of the Triomphe table, as an element independent from the structure. Simply put, it offers a wide base for optimal comfort. Nevertheless, the object always maintains the same paradox, of massiveness and of lightness.

By using high quality wood like oak, and the wenge, the objects that we have conceived together convey a strong traditional image tinged with innovation as much on the scale of details as with the global shape. It is as well with the technique of Jérôme Vigné as of our creativity that we could express ourselves without limitations. This project, a source of permanent dialogue between the design, the material and the crafts person allowed us to look into briefly the possibilities of application of design in the field of arts and crafts.
