SKIN

sofas

A texture crossed by light and suspended in space.
The result of many years of collaboration between Jean Nouvel and Molteni&C, SKiN is a self supporting hide leather cover with a special pattern. Leather without body reshapes itself over time so that innovation and memory hold the same form.

Jean Nouvel

Jean Nouvel was born in 1945 in Fumel, France. His approach to design comes from a need to create objects for his own architectures. This approach created the Less table which was produced by Molteni&C. for the headquarters of the Cartier Foundation. The Ateliers Jean Nouvel design activities reflect a desire to develop an “architectural design”.
