MASK

These mirrors employ acetate, within the creation of their frames, which is normally used for making the frames for spectacles. This bulk-stained plastic imitates horn or tortoiseshell. Appropriated and thus re-employed for a large object, it surprises as a result of its equally organic and totally synthetic appearance.

GELATO

Designing a chair most often consists of seeking out the essence of the typology and reducing it to its minimum, in the hope of making a sign so pure that it becomes universal and no longer refers to anything other than its function. Gelato proposes just the opposite! With Gelato, the formal expression of function is reduced to the strict minimum, in favour of a plastic formalisation free of all preconceptions or acquired knowledge. Stripped of all the signs and characteristics that identify or distinguish a chair, Gelato makes a clean sweep of our representations and proposes a complete rethink of the archetypal chair. A veritable statement, Jean-Baptiste Fastrez’s Gelato chair, fluid and slender, imposes an extraordinary sculptural presence, reinforced by a stark contrast with the elementary geometry of its pedestal, into which the body of the chair is anchored to form a single unit. Sculpture or chair, the ambiguity remains until you sit down and experience its total comfort and welcoming character. Made in France, the ultra-sturdy Gelato chair uses recycled materials and zero waste manufacturing techniques. Thanks to its invisible zip, the seamless cover is easy to remove, can be machine washed and put back on like a fitted dress with a zip at the back.
