Interior Design Feature: Bound Chair by Joe Doucet

I am in complete love with this chair. It is simple, elegant, sophisticated, sleek and modern. It also has this classic mid-century feel to it.

bound™ is an exploration into combining minimalist structural engineering with a maximalist sense of elegance. every curve and line of the sensuous form was designed to impart a sense of the chair in a stasis of motion. it is meant to evoke a feeling as though the chair may, at any moment, leave ofits own accord.

As a new department here at Luxe we’d like to feature Interior Design. First is an old chapel in the Netherlands that was converted by Dutch architectural firm, ZECC Architects to an ultra modern, super chic apartment. They decided to keep some of the original features like the stained glass windows and the original choir organ. Man this place oozes style. Not sure how we’d feel about throwing wild parties there.
