ROCHE BOBOIS:
IT’S HERE!
With a presence in almost 50 countries
already, French luxury furniture brand Roche
Bobois has now launched in Singapore. The
1970s Hans Hopfner-designed Mah Jong
sofas in the store window are indubitably
its signature, although this popular brand
has an extensive range of collections, from
starkly contemporary to classical with a hint
of modern edginess.
Based on the concept of total freedom
of function and form, the iconic Mah Jong’s
three elements can be reconfigured in
countless ways. Have it customised exactly
to your taste with specially designed fabrics
from vivid Missoni Home, classy Sonia Rykiel
Maison or dramatic Jean-Paul Gaultier to
create your own unique sofa, armchair,
lounge chair or bed. Bohemian, sophisticated
and comfy; we like to think of them as
very
grown-up beanbags.
Throughout the store, quality materials
are key. Lacquer-look Daquacryl comes in
34 colours and can be simply sanded down
to remove any scratches. The transparent
Astrolab table is extended by means of the
giant clockwork mechanism inside it – the
perfect conversation piece.
Stunning home accents include great rugs,
lamps such as the quirky Mama design made
of leather and coated with reflective metal,
and a range of dramatic monochromatic
wallpapers, some photographic, others with
trompe l’oeil effects.
Based on your own floor plan, in-house
interior consultants use special software to
create a 3D layout and image of your space,
so you can see exactly how it will look with
the furniture you have in mind. 354 Alexandra
Road, #01-19/20/21 The Alexis.
