Ice memory collection inspired by the metal parts of armor, the armchair takes on a warrior side, masculine, hence its name «arès», evoking the myth of the god of war in greek mythology. Raw in appearance, the curves bring a balance between strength and softness. Born in france, 1996 originally from le puy en velay, alexandre and maxence roche are twin brothers, interior designers and designers. They draw their inspiration from the nature where they grew up on the borders of the wild haute-loire. After completing their master's degree in interior architecture and theater scenography, they founded their studio roche & frères in paris. Combining the wonders of the natural world with a deep understanding of art and design, they create objects and furniture pieces that singularly combine raw material with aesthetic sophistication. Totally contemporary but rooted in the primordial earth, their work achieves an exquisite balance between the severe beauty of nature and the complexity of cosmopolitan life. Guided by the maxim that the piece of furniture is a jewel, they consider each piece's relationship with the body, space and time. Every design tells a story, infused with both their personal experiences and a sweeping historical perspective, inviting us to ponder wilderness, the planet, and our place in the universe. Each piece is handcrafted by master artisans in france. less
