VILLA ROSE | | Product Name: | Villa Rose | | Product Type | Desk | This desk, with its very pure, highly architectural lines, was presented by François Azambourg at the Expression de Design de la Villa Noailles de Hyères during the summer of 2008. It is made from black-stained solid oak. The designer has also provided a drawer (H 6'' ½ W 9'' ½ D 14'' ½ ) in solid American walnut to complement the desk: this slides beneath the top in a highly original fashion. This bureau may be complemented by the chair of the same name, which was created by the designer in the same spirit.
This chair is the perfect complement to the desk of the same name, which was presented by François Azambourg at the Expression de Design de la Villa Noailles de Hyères during the summer of 2008. It can equally be used with other tables or desks in the Collection.
This little chair offers a very good level of comfort and, in the black version, at an extremely good price. The idea is to group a number or black chairs around a table with one or two solid wood chairs.

| Designed: | 2010 | | Designer | François Azambourg | | François Azambourg has won much recognition over the years: lauréat de la villa Médicis hors les murs (2003), Grand Prix du Design de Paris (2004), lauréat du concours Top Plastique (3 times), and lauréat du concours du musée des arts décoratifs. His work links both the techniques and the art within the applied arts.
In 1994, having been awarded the lauréat du concours du CTBA, he began to create new materials for Hermès.
His work was shown at the VIA between 1999 and 2003: a fireside chair in wood and foam, the ‘Pack’ chair, a lamp in woven optical fibres, a light in double-layer textile, and the ‘very nice’ chair, which was inspired by the little balsa-wood chairs of his childhood.
In 2002, Designers’ Days enabled him to continue exploring the theme of fibre-optic lights; and he designed a ‘micro-restaurant’ for Lille 2004. Such projects lie at the very heart of his philosophy that a designer should be able to contradict himself, and not be held to his originally-chosen course. Whereas some may place a great deal of importance in theory, he holds the object in a much higher regard. This philosophy is the basis for his creations for the Carte Blanche for VIA, and his works for Cappellini, Domeau & Peres and Ligne Roset. | | Company | Ligne Roset |
