Skateboards inspire Skate Study House furniture
Skate Study House
In the spirit of the midcentury Case Study House program, Gil Le Bon De Lapointe and Pierre Andre Senizergues have launched Skate Study House, afurniture design firm whose pieces often bear the influence of modern masters. The Jet Set lounge chair shown here, which sells for $4,495, is an hommage to the 1928 Le Corbusier C4 chaise longue. Eight skateboard decks are set on a metal frame and topped with cushions made of neoprene, the same material used for wetsuits, so the piece can be used indoors or outdoors.
