Meridiana Chair in Black Leather by Christophe Pillet for Driade
By Driade, Christophe Pillet
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The Meridiana table stems from the ultimate globetrotter chair, revised this year with solid wooden legs. An archetype of the coffee shop or domestic table, it displays a precious balance between the round, wood particleboard top and the solid wood frame and legs. A mass-coloured clay mixture is smoothed over the top by hand with a scraper. The table’s aesthetic is distinguished by the shaded, handmade finish of its top. Available in the following colours: Volcano red, Lava black and Champagne. Born in 1959, he graduated from the Academy of Decorative Arts in Nice in 1985 and a year later took a post-graduate course at the Domus Academy in Milan. From 1986 to 1988 he worked with Martine Bedin in Milan, and from 1988 to 1993 with Philippe Starck in Paris. His first items of furniture, issued by XO, date from 1991. Since May 1993...

Ghidini 1961 Coast Chair in Brass and Leather by Branch Creative
By Ghidini 1961
Located in Villa Carcina, IT
Inspired by the Northern California coastline, the Coast Chair’s design draws its influence from a landscape of wandering, golden hills and the meandering roads that intersect them. Blending refined architectural elements with fluid gestures, the chair’s form brings surprising design moments to a functional, everyday object. The controlled, geometric legs provide a strong foundation for the more expressive upper section. The backrest appears to float using discreet joinery, and is framed by a brass arc, which acts as both a touch-point to move the chair and a resting place for a coat or bag. The Coast Chair welcomes you to sit back and stay awhile...
