B&b Italia Terminal 1 Chaise Lounge
TERMINAL 1 CHAISE LOUNGE
TERMINAL 1 CHAISE LOUNGE
Designed By Jean-Marie Massaud
The inclination to carry out experimentation has produced distinctive items that challenge the current scene.
Terminal 1 witnesses this with its fluid shapes, balance between seats and metal support, contrast between glossy and matt finish that enhance the sophistication of its monochrome image. With the dual function of armchair and chaise longue, it possesses the basic features of a sculpture that seems to float.
DESIGNER
JEAN-MARIE MASSAUD
Since the beginning of his career (a 1990 graduate of Paris’ ENSCI-Les Ateliers, Paris Design Institute), Jean-Marie Massaud has been working on an extensive range of works, stretching from architecture to objects, from one-off project to serial ones, from macro environment down to micro contexts.
Major brands such as Air France, Axor, Mdf Italia, Poltrona Frau or Toyota have solicited his ability to mix comfort and elegance, zeitgeist and heritage, generosity and distinction. Major brands such as Air France, Axor, Mdf Italia, Poltrona Frau or Toyota have solicited his ability to mix comfort and elegance, zeitgeist and heritage, generosity and distinction.
Beyond these elegant designs, his quest for lightness – in matters of essence – synthesize three broader stakes: individual and collective fulfillment, economic and industrial efficiency, and environmental concerns.
“I’m trying to find an honest, generous path with the idea that, somewhere between the hard economic data, there are users. People.”
His creations, whether speculative or pragmatic, explore this imperative paradigm: reconciling pleasure with responsibility, the individual with the collective.
Among his most sensational projects that illustrate this philosophy, the stadium for the city of Guadalajara, Mexico. A cloud and volcano-shaped building, integrated in a vast urban development program that re-unites leisure and culture, nature and urbanization, sport aficionados and local citizens.
