The PAPARITMO two-seat low chair is the most horizontal piece in Studio ASAÏ's debut collection, occupying the formal territory between chaise longue and settee.
Its rectangular form is defined by breadth and depth rather than height, with a deep cushioned seat and a substantial upholstered base carrying the same ribbed beige textile across all surfaces. A single large cylindrical bolster acts as the only vertical element, positioned along one side to serve as backrest or armrest depending on the user's posture. The asymmetry of this arrangement is the most deliberate formal decision in the PAPARITMO collection.
The horizontal ribbing of the textile, consistent across seat, base, and bolster, creates a visual unity that holds the composition together despite its unconventional proportions. A beechwood base runs the perimeter of the piece.
Conceived by Antoine Simonin, founder of STUDIO ASAÏ and AD 100-recognised designer, as part of his first furniture collection bringing his interior architecture practice to object scale. Available through Monde Singulier.

About
ASAÏ
Giving voice to the human spirit. Awakening the soul of a place. Writing novels, fictions, and novel fictions... like a series of bespoke self-portraits. Staying true to Saint-Exupéry's creed: « Let your dreams devour your life, so that life does not devour your dreams », STUDIO ASAÏ has, since 2014, conceived interior architecture as a living language. A language that is multifaceted, breaking free from repetition, bespoke, and tailored to each story, each adventure, each project encountered.
From his formative years with Andrée Putman and later with Jean-François Bodin, Antoine Simonin continually pushes boundaries, playing with conventions, challenging space and time, weaving improbable colour palettes with a deft touch, and spinning inspirations and references to distill an essence of non-style, neither retro nor futuristic. A non-style that moves closer to a dreamlike future, bold enough to embrace all possibilities... revealing the wonder around us and uncovering the hidden beauty that eludes us.
From the paramount importance of narrative to the pursuit of unadorned beauty. From private residences to luxury hotels, from furniture design to exhibition scenography, STUDIO ASAÏ redefines aesthetic singularity, balancing radicality and harmony, rawness and refinement, fantasy and reality, with equal parts humility and grace.
