Chair Porn~The Tolix Edition

In addition to my obsession with black&white decor, I also have another obsession—chairs. Yes, chairs. Our atelier is currently filled with vintage chairs we’ve both found and bought and looks like the place where chairs go to die. Seriously, that’s how many we have. I’ve just always loved how much character this simple piece of furniture can have. A unique chair can instantly change up the mood of an entire room and make a big statement. Next to the famous Eames chair, which I’ve previously written about, I’m also crazy about the iconic French Tolix chair. It’s definitely on my dream list for when I purchase my first home. They add such an industrial charm to any space and look great in any condition—rusty and weathered, or new and glossy. Hope you enjoy this Tolix porn as much I do!

I loved this blog post by French by Design! She featured photos of the new home of a French artist who just moved from France to Marrakech, Morocco. The house has a great industrial/ethnic feel and it’s accessorized with vibrant local craftsmanship pieces that contrast nicely with the raw concrete floors.

I’m loving this original moodboard I saw on the French by Design blog! It’s actually an old vintage pull down map system. A fantastic example of how a vintage piece can be repurposed into something new and trendy for your home.
