I got a tip about this chair by a friend, Susie Murphy Hemsworth, an Irish girl living in Paris who – like me – has (or had) a single subject blog, not about chairs, but about tables.
The Merlot chair is designed by Marta Del Valle Hernandez.
Marta del Valle is an interior & product designer with a unusual profile. She was previously devoted to the world of animated movies, so sensitivity for both art and color are always reflected in her work. She likes to create spaces that are fun to live, and if possible, fresh and timeless (like good music).
She spent her childhood in the coast of Granada (Andalusia), and since little got immersed in her father’s architecture (Jesús del Valle) and the colourful surroundings. Nothing can make her happier than taking action in a creative process, no matter what it is… from hand painted sheets for a newborn, to an interior design for a dentist. Therefore she has always tried to participate in all kinds of projects.
At the moment she works and continues to grow as a professional with her father, but her dream is to work with a company of young creatives in the big city.
