The story
The Beau Rivage Upholstered Chair is a cantilevered armchair by Rudy Guénaire, from the Croisière collection.
Its frame is formed from a continuous curved tube of polished chrome-plated steel, cantilevered so the seat appears to float without rear legs. The proportions are open and geometric, the steel describing a single fluid arc from backrest to floor. A rectangular seat cushion in light beige textile rests within the structure, its flat profile contrasting with the dynamic curve of the metal.
The upholstery is Alcantara, a fine-grain material that wears quietly across daily use without losing its surface character. The steel frame is chrome-plated to a high polish, the finish consistent across all exposed metal.
The Croisière collection places the Beau Rivage in the lineage of the great Bauhaus cantilever chairs, the Breuer B32, the Mies MR Chair, designs that made tubular steel a symbol of rational modernity in the 1920s. Rudy Guénaire takes that formal grammar and applies it with the restraint of a designer who does not need to announce the reference.
About Rudy Guénaire
Rudy Guénaire draws everything by hand. No 3D software, no renderings, just pencil on paper, from floor plans to furniture to napkin holders. It is the most legible fact about how he works, and it shapes what his spaces feel like: particular, considered, resistant to the generic.
He came to design sideways. A graduate of HEC, he co-founded PNY (Paris New York) in 2012 as a restaurateur, and it was through building out successive PNY locations across Paris, Lyon, Strasbourg, and Bordeaux that he discovered a talent for interior design. Working alongside architects CUT and Bernard Dubois sharpened that instinct further. In 2021, he formalized the practice as Studio Night Flight, a name taken from Saint-Exupéry.
