Remarkable & Special Armoire From Studio Tord Boontje

There are two basic types of modest space living in the world: the variety necessitated by earnings, and the sort that arises out of one particular’s environs — say, nestled into the heart of Paris or tucked away atop a tony skyscraper in some faraway metropolis. For the latter kind, a standalone wardrobe is probably in order given that a stroll-in closet almost certainly didn’t come with that pied-a-terre in the 4th arrondissement. But in situations in which an IKEA closet won’t do, enter the distinctive armoire choice from Studio Tord Boontje, such as the gorgeous woodwork of his piece entitled “L’armoire.” As much a piece of art as it is a piece of furniture, despite the fact that the armoire is completely functional, you may possibly not even want to hang your clothing inside, lest it pale in comparison to the beauty of its captor. Per Boontje, “The distinct Dalbergia wood selected is a silk-textured range, richly brown in colour with rich highlights, and figured by a subtle, darker irregular weave throughout.” Sensuous indeed is this gorgeous wardrobe hearkening back to the classic 18th century silhouette but updating it was a bit of creative flair, and there’s no mistaking that the designer is a large fan of Rodin, provided the boldly sculptural good quality of his operate. Standing 210 higher × 110 wide × 80 cm deep, it’s a particular set of somethings to be hung in such a masterpiece.
