Story
Philippe Bouix and the Envergure sofa
Philippe Bouix designed Envergure with a low silhouette that seems to float above the floor, resting on a chestnut-colored wooden platform. Fine, smooth leather and simple lines give the sofa its elegance, and the back frames come off for delivery. Several Roche Bobois sofas are his work, and he aims for visual comfort, a harmony of proportion, alongside physical comfort.
