Set of 4 Rendez-Vous Chairs by Part Studio Atelier

The frame of this chair is an ode to the longstanding tradition of tube bending in the Belgium furniture scene. Two mirrored steel lines dance around the plywood and leather seating, form a union leading upward and embrace the leather backrest. There are no trivialities with this design yet the simple geometrical duet between the circular seat and rectangular backrest render the whole a poetic playfulness.

The chair is a collaboration between PART and young antwerp shoemaker/designer Anne Goovaerts. Therefore much of the detailing in the leatherwork comes forth from her craftswomanship in contrast to more classical upholstery.

STUDIO PART
We look at the design, not as a single occupation, but as a woven whole in a world of plenty. Believing more in a universal connection than just the duality of our universe. This offers gigantic freedom in design but also a huge consequential responsibility. We are very aware that every object, drawing or even concept is interlinked and has an effect on its surrounding environment, be it physical or emotional. Knowing this, we do not take our job lightly.

ATELIER PART
In combining production alongside our design studio we obtain a birds-eye view over the desired result. We merge the experience of our designers and craftsmen in the fields of interior, exterior, event, product and furniture design with the techniques and skills of our PARTners in leatherwork, ceramics, lighting design, graphic design and public arts. We do not discriminate materials, nor technologies and treat every project with an equal perfectionistic, creative and enthusiastic drive as the next.
