Tolix’ A56 Armchair in Lingerie Campaign

The famous A56 armchair designed by Jean Pauchard in 1934 for Tolix is featured in the luxury lingerie brand Agent Provocateur‘s Spring/Summer-2011 campaign. The face of the newest collection is curvatious beauty Josephine de La Baume, a French actress and singer.

P.S. And just in case the photo above is not enough and you want to see the chair (or is it Josephine that you want to see more of?) in “action”, I suggest you check out the campaign at the AP website for some interesting jiggling gif pictures… I know you want to, so don’t be shy and click away! I won’t tell anyone you did.

Muji Thonet no. 14 by James Irvine at 2011 IMM Cologne (10)

Muji Thonet no 14 Interpretation by James Irvine

I was reasonably late to show you this Thonet no 14 interpretation by James Irvine which Muji started to sell in 2009 already. Therefore I’m glad I found it in front of my camera at IMM Cologne 2011 to publish it here. Especially because there are more recent reinterpretations of the no 14, like the Österlen by Inga Sempé, the Sealed Armchair by Francois Dumas and the Vigna Chair by Martino Gamper.
