Découvrez le fauteuil The Gere Easy Chair, un chef-d'œuvre intemporel né du génie créatif de la célèbre designer Gere Kavanaugh dans les années 1970. Fruit d'une collaboration exclusive avec Floyd, The Gere Easy Chair est la version commerciale très attendue d'un prototype qui a captivé les amateurs de design pendant des décennies.
Conçu pour se démarquer facilement tout en s'intégrant parfaitement à n'importe quel environnement, la silhouette unique de The Gere Easy Chair reste fidèle au design emblématique des années 1970 tout en intégrant harmonieusement des matériaux et des éléments contemporains.
Cet article est fabriqué sur commande.
In the 1970’s in California, Gere has said that “Cardboard was in the air at the time.” Drawing inspiration from her city of Los Angeles, Gere based her design around working with a Sonotube, a tube of compressed cardboard for pouring concrete and primarily used for making the pillars and columns for highways.
Gere adapted a Sonotube to a chair by cutting it down and adding a plywood seat base and foam, and upholstered the chair herself in a bold orange fabric. Gere’s prototype chair proposed a way for the use of a recyclable and abundant material—cardboard—to be used in a practical and warm way as furniture, more than just as an “art object.” It can be seen in this way as an early precedent of sustainable furniture design, decades ahead of its time.
Crafted with the utmost attention to detail, The Gere Easy Chair is upholstered in a curated selection of high-quality fabrics, ensuring a luxurious and indulgent seating experience – a true collector's item and a symbol of the timeless collaboration between a visionary designer and a forward-thinking furniture company.

Gere Kavanaugh's design career first took off while she was a student at Cranbrook, the famed design school just outside of Detroit. In 1952, she became one of the first women to earn an MFA from the institution. After graduation, she was recruited by General Motors' Styling Division where she designed for trade shows, interior models, and various other projects until 1958.
In the '60's, Gere joined the offices of Victor Gruen and began designing interiors for retail stores and shopping centers across the country. The firm, along with Gere, moved to Los Angeles where she would go on to establish her own independent design studio, Gere Kavanaugh/Designs.
Through her own design practice has come a kaleidoscope of work that ranges from furniture and graphic design, exhibitions to textiles, toys, sculpture and urban design, to an extensive personal research library on color. Now, at the age of 94, Gere is still designing out of her home based studio in LA.
