Linteloo Claude Dining Chairs

CLAUDE DINING CHAIRS

Designed by Guillaume Lopez

At some point during the 19^th century, the ‘crapaud’ saw the light of day—a compact armchair, with a rounded back seamlessly gliding into lower armrests, providing a comfortable hug.

GUILLAUME LOPEZ

Upon graduation—mentored by François Bauchet and Éric Jourdan at the Saint-Étienne School of Art and Design—Guillaume Lopez (1989) joined the leading brand of Christophe Delcourt.

His passion for elegant, sophisticated finishes and a subtle colour palette subsequently brought the young designer to Toronto, where George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg presented him with an opportunity to take his design talents to exclusive projects all over the world.

In 2022, he struck out on his own and started his own studio in the French Alps. Guillaume is a strong believer in dialogue, in the broadest sense of the word—from the way in which shapes communicate with each other to merging past and present experiences, and combining state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques with natural materials. But above all, he believes in the power of collaboration, of shared passions.

SOFA REQUIRED

Leather Upholstery Of A Sofa Requires More (Visible) Seams Than Fabric Upholstery.

FINISH

‘White wash’ (pigmented oil) or ‘dark brown’ stained, protected with a matte varnish.

DETAIL

As an armchair—with a closed, oak-veneered base—‘Claude’ is the perfect addition to your seating area. Thanks to its open base front, the slightly higher version is the perfect dining or desk chair.
