Designed by Rodolfo Dordoni for Minotti, the Jensen armchair was born to become a benchmark in terms of design and comfort. The rigid outer structure gives stability to the whole, while the goose-down padding invites relaxation. The topstitching around the perimeter of the structure highlights the chair's outline. The zip, visible on the front of the seat, has a double function: it is both decorative and practical. But it is in the base that Jensen's originality and uniqueness are fully expressed. The triangular die-cast aluminium section is a collection of fluid curves, varying thicknesses, and roundness. The Jensen armchairs are characterised by sophisticated technology typical of Minotti, who put study, research and engineering to work to create objects of eloquent beauty.
Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance is a designer and interior architect who draws his aesthetic vocabulary from natural, supple, organic, fluid and structured forms. He has a real passion for materials and form, embodied in his dual training: first in metal sculpture at ENSAAMA, then in design at the Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance's creative family background (his father was a sculptor) quickly led him to develop a singular, even unusual aesthetic, starting with the Sketch restaurant in London in 2002. In 2003, he set up his own studio and from then on saw each project as a real opportunity to define his own aesthetic, to create harmonious objects and spaces whose aim is to forge an emotional link with nature. Voted 'Designer of the Year' at Maison & Objet in 2007, his success has continued to grow, with a wide range of projects: from the Fusion lamp for Gaia & Gino, to the Calla armchair designed for Zanotta, as well as more ambitious interior design projects and product designs for prestigious brands such as Air France, Yves Saint Laurent and Paco Rabanne.... In each of his creations, he seeks above all to evoke emotion, particularly through the utility of the shapes and the beauty of the lines.
