Description
11 Back-to-Back Sofa Erosion Module
Interested in the movement of pebbles along the coastline of the English Channel and the inconsistency of their shape during their journey, Alexandre Labruyère transcribes their movement with his module
Erosion from the eponymous series. With this piece, he works with oak to reveal its soul and creates tension in the lines to convey the effects of time on the wood. The designer reveals the unique character of the material by working with its grain, producing a sculptural object anchored to the ground like a cliff.
The 11 Erosion module in oak is exclusive to the Anne Jacquemin Sablon gallery.
Production time between 10 and 12 weeks.
