Story
A view of the Bugey landscape
According to Rémi Bouhaniche, the idea came during the first lockdown in 2020, while he was watching aerial video images of the Briord factories in the Ain, where Ligne Roset is based. He set out to design a piece of furniture inspired by the landscape in that view: the Rhône and its meanderings around the Bugey mountains.
A homage to wood
The desk is a homage to wood, with the light but asymmetrical lines of nature.
