Grid Daybed

Description

A multifunctional daybed was the harbinger of the entire Grid collection from Paris-based designers Léa Padovani and Sébastien Kieffer. Together as studio Pool, they devised this first piece with variable cushions to be switched out—and even a wood table or a bright leather accent pillow could be added. Now the collection encompasses companion sofa, chair and chaise models, all meant for happily meeting the needs of “everyday life” as the design duo puts it.

Brand

Petite Friture

Paris-based Petite Friture (French for “small fry”) champions new names as well as veteran designers as they collaborate on objects, lighting and furniture, all created for everyday life. “Emerging talents benefit from the exposure of the more established talents, while established talents remain fresh and open to new ideas thanks to the contact with emerging talents,” says founder Amelie du Passage. “I like to think of Petite Friture as the meeting point.”

Every product tells its own story. “It alludes to happiness, the sunshine, and a simple but pleasing dish to share with people you love,” Amelie says. “In short, it means many positive things that make life worthy.” She sees the workings of the much-heralded brand, which only debuted in 2009, much like a book editor. “Our role is to gather all of these mini-narratives together and combine them to create the Petite Friture story.”
