Voiles by Roche Bobois

Designer-sculptor Maurice Barilone dedicated three months of intensive workshop research to perfect the airy silhouette of the curved metal sheets that form the base of this piece. Each sheet is meticulously cut, shaped under 1,500 kilograms of pressure, welded and re-polished before the final finish is applied. Despite the substantial weight of the material, the design of Voiles achieves an elegant sense of lightness. The surface comes to life through a play of reflections, enhanced by sophisticated galvanic finishes that range from gold, copper, chrome and black nickel to vibrant chromes, each adding a refined, luminous quality.
