About the Item
The "S28" dining chairs, designed by Pierre Chapo in 1972, represent a clear transition from mid-century to modernist design. For this design he was particularly influenced by a traditional chair used in the Alsace region. He kept the basic characteristics of the Alsatian chair, but modernized it. The back is made of a single piece of wood, the seat is a solid flat wood piece and the four legs point outwards The chairs showcase geometric seats and backrests with tapered legs. The wood grain is perfectly aligned, highlighting the natural beauty of the material.
These chairs are unmarked, but well documented in Chapo's work.

Pierre Chapo
Pierre Chapo, who was born in Paris, France, in July 1927, was initially interested in becoming a professional painter. However, after a chance meeting with a shipbuilder who introduced him to wood and woodworking, Chapo changed his focus and decided to study architectural studies at the prestigious École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
After graduating, Chapo and his wife, the sculptor and painter Nicole Lormier, started traveling extensively through Scandinavia and Central America. Among the many places the couple visited was Taliesin West, the home and studio of Frank Lloyd Wright — a visit that had a lasting influence on Chapo’s future work and designs.

Pierre Chapo discovered Alsatian architecture, the wood structures of the traditional half-timbered houses and the tried an tested household furniture.

Struck by the traditional "Aslation chair," Chapo decided to modernize it . In 1972, he designed the S28 chair, keeping the basic characteristics of the "Alsatian chair...
