I’m absolutely smitten with these new pieces from French designer Hervé van der Straeton’s latest collection – Manipulations. Check out the entire collection and an interview with the man himself on Luxury Culture.
I love the iridescent quality of the glass this chandelier is made from.
An amazing mix of luxe materials on such an unusual design.
And last but not least, this is definitely my favorite piece. The “Soulages” writing desk shows Van Der Straeton’s eye for detail. Parchment lined interior with lighting, and custom hardware that is actually part of the design. Just stunning. Is it too soon to be making a wish list for Christmas?
I found these pics of Hervé van der Straeton’s (one of my favorite designers, wh0 I’m sure will be – looking back -an outstanding figure of 21st Century design) Paris apartment on photographer Simon Watson’s website and had to share – just because I’m thinking all things French this week, and because I’ve not seen them published elsewhere. Enjoy – and have a great weekend!
I’m loving this spread in the latest Architectural Digest (French edition). A stunning collection of objet d’or by some of the greatest contemporary designers of our day, I wouldn’t mind getting any of these from Santa this year!
This is probably my favorite pic…how stunning is that marble! The bronze table is by Meret Oppenheim, and the two gold spheres – one resin, the other gold leaf – are by Pierre Giraudon.
The light fixture on the left is by Hubert Le Gall, and the bookshelf on the right is by Vicenzo de Cotiis.
In front of a Herve van der Straeton mirror is a chair by Philippe Hiquilly, on top of which sits a rock table prototype by Arik Levy.
