valerie objects Armchair Blue Textile. Dimensions: 180 x 60 cm x H 61 cm. Relax as a couple with this incredible double seat designed by Flemish creative duo Muller Van Severen. Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen work at the intersection between art and design. They are among the most prominent creators of the moment. From galleries to museums, not to mention collectors, design enthusiasts and design houses, everyone loves their minimalist, colourful furniture, timeless and joyful. In less than a decade, Muller Van Severen has become a key player in design, to the point of winning numerous awards and increasing collaborations with prestigious museums (Pompidou Centre, Vitra museum, etc.). It was in 2012 that the creative duo designed this collection of seats. That year, they were chosen to mount an exhibition at the Kortrijk Interieur Biennale. Since the space where the event was held had no seats, the designers decided to remedy this by creating Duo Seat. The basic concept was simple: stretch a piece of cloth between two steel bars. This incredible chaise longue for two, inspired by the lounge chair, allows mellow proximity, a unique face-to-face. Duo Seat plays on oppositions (of posture and orientation) while promoting confidence and two-way discussions, like the loveseats of yesteryear. The Duo Seat armchair is characterised by its graphic design: despite its large dimensions, this piece of furniture that plays with transparency is imbued with great visual lightness. It doesn’t interrupt your space or impose with its presence, and can fit into any decor. A clever blend of sobriety and originality, it offers the maximum effect with a minimum of substance. Duo Seat consists of an extremely thin and airy curry-coloured steel structure. It’s associated with suspended linen canvases, flexible and fluid, which seem to float. The fabrics are available in pretty colour combinations: pale green and pale blue or red and pink. Duo Seat lets you relax in different postures: lying on the lounge chair part or sitting on the armchair part. A true invitation to relax, the flexibility of the suspended canvas leaves plenty of room for comfort. You feel like you’re in a hammock! Duo Seat is ideal for setting up a relaxation area that’s great for long discussions in a living room, office, reading room... Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen, ex-sculptor and ex-photographer respectively, infuse each of their pieces with a touch of poetry. Hannes explains: “Design is linked to function. We come from the visual arts. So we’re just trying to create sculptural furniture to occupy space. Art or design, creation takes place the same way … and provides the same satisfaction. Poetry is possible even in the industrial”, concludes Fien.
