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.

In 1971, Pierre Chapo unveiled his visionary Converging-Lines Tables, sparking the inception of the second series of stools.
The S31 embodies Chapo's mastery, skilfully uniting three converging legs to create a robust, stable base supporting even the weightiest sitter on a compact seat.
This ingenious design not only ensures functionality but also enhances the stool's aesthetic allure. In our studio we use the S31 as booth a stool and side table.
