The Echoes lounge chair is part of a small family of seating with big personalities that call to mind echoes of other seemingly contrasting times and cultures – Mediterranean and Scandinavian. Echoes is rustic and delicate, déjà vu and yet, timeless. Its construction displays a bold material contrast: the structure is in sleek metal while the seat and backrest are made of fine woven paper or paper rush cord or covered in cowhide. Complex craftsmanship reminiscent of traditional methods is still performed entirely by hand. A soft optional cushion can be added to the lounge chair to ensure the utmost comfort. Manufactured by Flexform.

Christophe Pillet (born 1959 in Montargis, France) graduated in 1985 from the Academy of Decorative Arts, Nice, France, and then completed a post-graduate course in Milan at the Domus Academy. He subsequently worked in Milan with Martine Bedin before moving to Paris, where he worked with Philippe Starck from 1988 to 1993. Over the course of his career, he has designed for a number of top brands, including Cappellini, Driade, Kartell, L'Oreal, Moroso, Shiseido, and Tacchini. His products range from architecture and interior design to home furnishings designs such as chairs and vases. Christophe Pillet makes a point of not limiting himself to a single style, yet rather experiments with a variety of aesthetics. In an interview with Azure Magazine, he said that “In my opinion, it's not important to have a style; it's more important to do things 'with' style. Being too coherent in your work can get a little dry.”
