Salomon told me he wished to generate a furniture collection, I mentioned, I possess a suggestion, considering that I had only gotten some Chapo items for my own cooking area job.

The collection was actually brought to life utilizing the intarsia strategy, a traditional procedure in the fashion industry, particularly with fur and also shearling. While usually made use of to create smooth as well as delicate concepts, this technique needed to be actually conformed to accomplish a tough and sound structure. Each shearling part was actually meticulously reduced and also stitched through palm, causing a vibrant and long lasting pattern.

The result is a completely handcrafted, invisibly stitched problem, where each ‘furniture clothing’ is made to go with every surface, shape, as well as curve along with accuracy. Sustainability was main to the task, with both labels stressing its value at every stage.
‘On the Chapo edge, it was actually really significant for Pierre Chapo to make furniture that lasts,’ Zoran Chapo states, taking note that this collaboration highlights sustainability by giving older versions of household furniture a brand-new life via reinterpretation.
