Bespoke Armchairs, Dubai.

Saint Objets is a French furniture studio in Dubai. Designed in Paris, crafted in the Emirates. Every armchair begins as a drawing, not a catalogue number, developed for the way a room is actually lived in.

Bespoke Armchairs, Dubai: made to order means the armchair is built to your proportions and your materials. Performance velvet, boucle and linen, selected for Dubai light and daily life, so a sculptural armchair keeps its shape and its presence for years across the UAE.

An armchair is judged by the body within ten seconds, which is why it is the least forgiving piece in a room. Seat height decides whether standing up is easy; seat depth decides whether the back is usable or decorative; arm height decides whether the shoulders relax. Change any of the three by three centimetres and the chair becomes something else. Saint Objets draws armchairs to the person as often as to the room, and on a commission the seat height is one of the first numbers discussed rather than one of the last.

Saint Objets develops made-to-order armchairs and lounge chairs for Dubai interiors, from intimate reading corners to generous sculptural seating. Each commission considers the sitter and the room together: seat height, depth, arm profile, upholstery texture and colour are refined around the intended use.

Explore five current studio pieces: Suki Chair, Mayfair Armchair, Hôtel de Rome Armchair, Le Marais Lounge Chair and Aphrodite Armchair. Their distinct silhouettes offer a considered starting point for custom dimensions and fabric selection.

What seat height suits most people?
Around forty two centimetres works for most, but it is set to the user rather than to an average.

Can a swivel be added?
Yes, on most silhouettes, and it is decided at drawing stage because it changes the base.

How long does one armchair take?
Lead time is ten to thirty days, according to the scale of the project, the number of pieces and the availability of the chosen fabric. *Timelines may vary depending on the availability and inbound delivery of the selected fabric.
