Geometries by Roche Bobois
2019/2020 Autumn-Winter Collection
This season, Roche Bobois explores the true essence of forms. New creations play on curved and sharp lines to create sleek pieces and more elaborate ones (such as the Girasol table). Design after design, the 2019 Fall-Winter collection unveils a series of lines, squares and polygons that echo the geometric shapes that structure interior spaces. It also embodies the stimulation of the creative mind by new digital capabilities, which allows new and complex forms to be developed such as the winding base of the Ser- pentine table. Through this diversity, Roche Bobois brings to life a collection shaped and inspired by underlying geometries.
Cigale
Dining table with tray and two glass-ceramic composite extensions (different finishes) on a manganese lacquered aluminum bar or matching the tray. Base in 8 lacquered steel plates assembled (different colors).
Informel
Designed in 1981 by Hans Hopfer, the Informel sofa with its fully foam structure originally featured a ruched quilted duvet, embodying the 1980s trend of cosy comfort. A huge success at the time, it has now been updated for its return to the Roche Bobois catalogue by utilising a new elastic technical fabric and random tufts to accent its shape.
Girasol
In love with triangles? The innate balance of its geometry captivates and brings to life hypnotizing motifs. Patrick de Glo de Besses designed the Girasol dining table as a farandole of geometries: the 16 facets of its pyramidal skirt-like base result from the superposition of 2 square volumes, the 8 polygons of its marquetry top wrap around an octagon, and the belt is composed of 32 triangles.
Temps calme
For Roche Bobois, comfort is about more than a physical experience, aesthetic also comes into play. Physical comfort is always key, with sofas designed for the well-being of those who curl up and get cosy.
