Felix de Boussy is a Belgian 20th century designer that with Willy Daro started the a “material revolutiuon” when he garnered attention for an innovative use of natural materials. Boussy’s and Daro’s audacious furnishings featured an unlikely merging of brass, minerals, fossils, coral, shells and stones.
