Description

The Rocks are an experience for the user. We have selected from nature the rock shapes most likely to indicate a seat. The shapes we’ve chosen offer a wide variety of seating positions, with users looking for their posture, sometimes cross-legged, sometimes leaning on the rocks… It’s up to them to find the position that suits them best. Like Franz West’s Paßstücke, Rocks invites users to experiment and play.

The Rocks are colored in the mass with ochres from the color-rich soils of Roussilon, in southeastern France. Users can choose from different shades of these natural pigments to integrate the rocks into their interiors. The colors are both soft and deep, changing with the light that falls on them. They oscillate between shades of pink and white, making them almost alive. When rocks are in a room, they are like stopping points, a time to rest during a walk.

– Indoor use only
– The price shown is for two rocks. If you would like just one, please reach out.

About Studio Jean Louis Noël Visit Showroom →

Louis-Jean and Louis-Noël, the dynamic French duo behind Studio Jean Louis Noël, have rekindled a two-century-old craft in a contemporary context. Specializing in paper-based creations, they have masterfully rejuvenated the traditional "carton-pierre" technique, once a blend of boiled silk paper, stone powder, and glue. Historically, this blend was the artisan's answer to affordable moldings and ornaments for homes and furnishings. Now, the pair infuses their modern version of carton-pierre with recycled paper, aligning with their commitment to sustainability and environmental consciousness. Studio Jean Louis Noël isn’t just about design – it's a movement. Louis-Jean and Louis-Noël passionately advocate for a paradigm shift in our bond with objects. Distancing from the overconsumption that plagues modern society, they champion eco-design and the creation of handcrafted objects in limited series. Their dedication to recycled materials reinforces their vision: a world where design harmonizes with nature, and where artistry fuses with responsibility.
