Modernist bent plywood chair and ottoman, designed by architect Leandre Poisson. The chair is comprised of curved plywood structures, joined by exposed hardware and finished with generous cushions. Guided by the chair's form, the upholstery been has been meticulously restored in grass green cotton velvet, in the spirit of Poisson’s design principles. The end result is a distinctive design that is elevated and luxurious. This example is one-of-a-kind, acquired alongside a suite of furniture envisioned for his futuristic dome house in New Hampshire. These furnishings embody his passion for innovative materials and embracing sustainability principles. Graduating from RISD in the late 1950s, Poisson honed his industrial design skills at NYC firms, most notably with Raymond Loewy. In the 1960s, the architect made a significant move to New Hampshire, redirecting his focus towards environmental design, which included a pioneering approach to solar architecture and gardening. Furniture signed and dated 1982.
