Description
Pierre Chapo “L07” daybed, elmwood, France, 1963.
The Pierre Chapo “L07” Daybed, designed in 1963, shows the essence of French modernist design. Chapo, a trailblazer in the design world, is celebrated for his emphasis on simplicity, superior craftsmanship, and the ethical sourcing of materials, sharing many similarities with Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand. This daybed represents Chapo’s ideals, merging aesthetic appeal with practicality. Constructed from solid elm, a material chosen for its sustainability and robustness, the “L07” daybed reflects Chapo’s meticulous attention to detail and his dedication to quality and durability. It features a unique sliding mechanism that allows it to be easily converted from a single bed into a spacious resting area. When closed, the “L07” daybed transcends mere functionality, transforming into a architectural element. The individual slats, meticulously arranged in a sophisticated offset pattern, create a visually stunning surface. This isn’t just a practical solution; it’s a design statement.
