Some commissions begin with a single curve. For a hospitality project, a branded hotel in Abu Dhabi, ours began with one sweeping radius drawn to organise a room around it. We worked in architectural collaboration with NOYA Global, and built the seating to order in the Emirates.
How we work
Every piece starts as a drawing in Paris. We set the proportion first, then the frame, the fill and the cloth. Nothing is pulled from a catalogue. A hotel asks furniture to be beautiful and to last, so the seating was developed to hold its shape and its presence through constant daily use.
The pieces
The lounge is anchored by a long curved sofa and a family of rounded armchairs, drawn so the eye moves softly around the space. The palette stays calm and tonal, with warm accents that lift the room without breaking its quiet. Each piece was made to the exact dimensions the architecture asked for.
Made for daily life
In a hospitality setting, furniture is judged on the thousandth guest, not the first. The upholstery was selected for texture, colour depth and suitability for constant use, with performance characteristics specified according to the brief. From the first drawing to the final installation, one studio carried the project: design, fabrication, finish and delivery.
This is how Saint Objets works on furniture-led interiors, from a single commissioned piece to a complete space. See our design services or read more in the Saint Objets journal, including the architecture of comfort.
