Designed by Gaëlle Lauriot Prévost and Dominique Perrault, this refined chair is crafted from rich Doussi wood paired with a sleek stainless steel and nickel-plated steel frame, reflecting the duo's signature blend of natural warmth and industrial precision. The piece was created in conjunction with the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, one of Perrault's most celebrated architectural achievements, and is presented alongside a monograph documenting the project's decade-long development from 1988 to 1998. Together, the chair and publication offer an intimate glimpse into the designers' unified vision of architecture, interior space, and object design as a single, cohesive creative language.
