PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PAIR OF STOOLS AS « X » CA/1973

THIS PAIR OF STOOLS AS "X" BY YONEL LEBOVICI, EXEMPLIFIES HIS INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO DESIGN. THE STOOLS FEATURE A STRIKING "X" SILHOUETTE, WHERE THE FORM SERVES BOTH FUNCTIONAL AND AESTHETIC PURPOSES. MADE FROM POLISHED STAINLESS STEEL, THE STOOLS BOAST A SLEEK, REFLECTIVE SURFACE THAT ENHANCES THEIR SCULPTURAL PRESENCE, CREATING A BOLD VISUAL IMPACT.

THE DESIGN’S CLEAN LINES AND MINIMALIST STRUCTURE EVOKE A SENSE OF MODERNITY AND TIMELESSNESS, WHILE THE RIDGED TEXTURE ON THE SEATS ADDS A SUBTLE LAYER OF DEPTH AND INTRIGUE. THE "X" BASE IS NOT ONLY STRUCTURALLY EFFICIENT BUT ALSO VISUALLY CAPTIVATING, EMBODYING THE SPIRIT OF GEOMETRIC ABSTRACTION AND RADICAL DESIGN THAT DEFINED THE 1970S AVANT-GARDE MOVEMENT.

LEBOVICI’S WORK IS KNOWN FOR ITS PLAYFUL YET ELEGANT APPROACH, AND THIS PAIR OF STOOLS IS NO EXCEPTION. THE REFLECTIVE METAL SURFACE ENGAGES WITH LIGHT, GIVING THE STOOLS A DYNAMIC QUALITY, WHILE THEIR FORM SUGGESTS BOTH STABILITY AND MOVEMENT. THESE PIECES SERVE AS FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS AND ARTFUL STATEMENTS, BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN FURNITURE AND SCULPTURE, MAKING THEM A FITTING ADDITION TO ANY CONTEMPORARY SPACE.
