PIERRE YOVANOVITCH

Not content with reimagining one well-known Dior design, Yovanovitch – who began his career in fashion before opening his own interior-design studio in 2001 – also included a rethink of its 1970s ‘Oblique’ fabric. Updated in a new palette created in collaboration with the embroidery experts at Maison Vermont, the new ‘Oblique’ has been used to upholster the seat and backrest, which, he explains, ‘are like a real-life couple; they resemble each other, but their personalities differ’. By choosing a textured steel structure to accompany the fabric, Yovanovitch has ensured this take on the classic has a touch of rebellion. pierreyovanovitch.com
