It all began a couple of years before the set launch, stimulated by Yves Salomon’s idea to mix his enthusiasm for fashion trend with his passion for furniture layout. As a classic household furniture aficionado, Salomon already owned a number of Pierre Chapo pieces in the house when he initially imagined the collection.

Salomon told me he desired to generate a household furniture selection, I mentioned, I have a suggestion, given that I had simply purchased some Chapo items for my very own cooking area job.

This collaboration was actually the comprehensive opposite– it must be actually strong, sturdy, and solid,’ Yves Salomon portions.
The compilation was actually breathed life into utilizing the intarsia approach, a timeless approach in the fashion industry, especially with coat and shearling. While commonly used to produce smooth and delicate layouts, this method must be actually conformed to accomplish a powerful as well as strong design. Each shearling part was thoroughly cut and stitched by hand, resulting in a vibrant as well as heavy duty pattern.
‘I need to point out that Yves Salomon is actually extremely reserved, yet they are actually known to be the best in the world at this method. Thus, I was actually truly self-assured when they told me they intended to utilize it for our cooperation,’ details Zoran Chapo.Zoran Chapo (left), Yves Salomon (right)|graphic courtesy of Maison & Objet A New Life for Leftovers: Upcycled Products Meet Iconic Concepts The joint collection is actually given birth to utilizing upcycled components, including thrown out cloths, shearling, and also leather junks that were actually or else thought about unacceptable for other tasks. ‘We must recognize that when we help make a garment, it should be best.

The result is actually a totally handcrafted, undetectably sewed puzzle, where each ‘furnishings ensemble’ is developed to suit every surface area, form, and arc along with precision. Sustainability was actually core to the job, along with both brands stressing its own significance at every stage.
‘On the Chapo side, it was actually crucial for Pierre Chapo to create home furniture that lasts,’ Zoran Chapo mentions, taking note that this partnership highlights sustainability by offering more mature models of household furniture a brand new life via reinterpretation.
