The Manhattan Low Chair is a compact, armless lounge chair designed by Girodroux & Delpy for the Manhattan collection, created exclusively for Monde Singulier.
Its form is grounded and contained: a rectangular seat and slightly angled backrest are upholstered in textured off-white textile, their clean geometry sitting above a base of four flat, vertical panels of dark brown solid wood. The panelled base wraps the understructure in a geometric grid, its visible grain adding warmth to an otherwise architectural form.
The upholstery textile is woven with a subtle texture, consistent with the cream and off-white materials used throughout the Manhattan collection. The wooden base panels are cut from solid stock with a pronounced natural grain, finished in a deep, matte dark brown that is uniform across all four elements.
Part of the Manhattan collection by Girodroux & Delpy, the Low Chair offers the most compact seating option in the range, its armless configuration suited to dining and accent positions as well as lounge settings. The piece demonstrates the studio's approach to using structural wood as a visual and tactile counterpoint to soft upholstery.
Laure Girodroux and Louis-Henri Delpy established their Paris studio in 2013, working across interior architecture and furniture design. Their practice sits at the intersection of architectural rigour and artisanal precision, drawing from the decorative arts of the 1950s to 1980s, from Jean Royere's biomorphic forms to Andree Putman's sober modernism.
The duo's approach refuses the decorative for its own sake. Each project, whether a private residence or a bespoke furniture commission, is framed as a question: how much can be pared back before the essential disappears? That tension between restraint and generosity runs through every piece they sign.
French savoir-faire sits at the core of the Girodroux & Delpy identity. Their collaborations with exceptional craftsmen and specialist ateliers produce work that is entirely sur-mesure, built around the specific demands of each space and client. The result is an interior language that is subtle without being anonymous.
The studio has expanded its practice to the United States and Qatar, where it continues to represent a particular idea of French interior design: neither historicist nor gratuitously contemporary, but precisely calibrated to the moment.
At Monde Singulier, Girodroux & Delpy are represented by the Manhattan collection, a suite of fifteen seating and table pieces created exclusively for the marketplace. The collection pairs hand-carved solid wood bases, their surfaces deliberately rough-hewn to evoke primal sculptural traditions, with cream boucle upholstery. The Manhattan Curved Sofa and the Manhattan Console are among the collection's most distinctive pieces.
