Second Skin Chair by Quinze & Milan (2010)

What makes a chair a chair? What distinguishes it from a stool,

a sofa or a bench for that matter? For Second Skin, Quinze & Milan

stripped down the notorious easy chair from all unneccesary frills,

until they were left with nothing but its core, the bones.

Given the deconstructed chair and keeping in mind traditional

upholstering in leather, they then started playing – the result

being a comfortable chair reflecting a 21st-century interpretation

of time-honoured craftmanship.

A strikingly simple framework, created from massive lacquered oak,

supports a generous piece of leather skin which is wedged between

the back and arm rests. Each chair is constucted by hand and

totally unique, due to the variety in cut-outs of big pieces of

leather and the way they are draped around the framework. The wink

to fashion should be obvious, as well as the reasoning behind its

name - although apart from leather, there is also the option of

upholstering the chair in the desired colour of fabric Divina by

Kvadrat. If desired, up to 5 layers of (contrasting) leather or

fabric can be applied to one chair.

Built to Resi(s)t by Quinze & Milan + EASTPAK (2010)

For the first time ever, EASTPAK joined forces with a furniture

design label, launching a range of exclusively upholstered lounge

seats. Called ‘BUILT TO RESI(S)T’, the product line combines

abstract QUINZE & MILAN shapes with authentic EASTPAK product

characteristics, including bags, zippers, handles, colorful strong

fabrics and popular prints. The result is a fashionable collection

of strong seats with a brave, distinctive look that will blend

into any contemporary setting.

By creating functional and genuine designs for a relaxed lifestyle,

QUINZE & MILAN and EASTPAK are both renowned over the world, famed

for their unique products, toughness & functionality. Art, music,

fashion, life experiences and the dynamics of a constantly changing

visual culture are their main inspiration when bringing products

to the market that wow the crowd.

As great minds think alike, QUINZE & MILAN meets EASTPAK in a

contemporary special edition furniture collection, resulting from

a successful cross-disciplinary collaboration between both in-house

creative teams. Various pockets are incorporated onto the seats

and provide storage for your books, magazines, reading glasses,

laptop, iPod®, headset, remote control... Whatever you can think

of can now simply be pocketed in your sofa!

The World Is Flat - Installation by Antoine Peters (NL)

Fashion designer Antoine Peters presents an interactive installation called

‘The World is Flat’, featuring customised seating objects for Quinze & Milan

x EASTPAK’s Built to Resi(s)t collection, and a collection of special accessories.

About Antoine Peters

Antoine Peters graduated cum laude at the Art Academy in Arnhem as well at the

master course Fashion Institute Arnhem and has working working experience at

Viktor&Rolf. Known for his A SWEATER FOR THE WORLD! project, a 2-person sweater

with the goal to photograph as many ‘different kind of people’ as possible inside

it, in a few years the fanatical football player gathered even more reputation

with his pop-culture inspired designs and drew attention of the international

press. He is covered as one of the world’s hundred most innovative young

designers in the ‘100 new fashion designers’ book by Hywel Davies and he

proudly designed the volunteer costumes for the recent Arnhem Fashion Biennial.

Peters’ work is known because of his conceptual, layered and innovative style

and is praised because if its optimism, playfulness and renewing form of el-

egance. More serious matter is brought in a light manner, with the arising of

a new unbiased perspective as a result. His work brings airiness by means of

concept, but also literally in the clothing and installations itself.

ANTOINE PETERS stands for ‘One size fits all elegance’.

Bringing together the best of ‘casual’ and ‘sophistication’.

ANTOINE PETERS wants to spread a smile. www.antoinepeters.com Photography: Antoine Peters Studio

Quinze & Milan - The Quartz Chair is back at home, updated!

Quinze & Milan tackles geometry once again, and has furthered its work on forms

and faceting, seeking new effects from the wood and creating a chair whose design

is a combination of the past and future.

Using the most classic of materials, Quinze & Milan has successfully made an

object with a symbolic shape in which the material gains qualities of luminosity.

Quartz is an object of the future that retains the intrinsic value of wood – strong

and hard-wearing, comfortable and basic.

“We wanted to give the material a different look without however ignoring its natural

qualities. The facets give a dynamic and vibrant appeal, while the surface plays

with the light, creating a sparkling effect. Just like quartz.”

Quartz Chair is now available in different wood finishings.

.MGX by Materialise is excited to be

taking part in Superieur! As the world-

leader in 3D printing technologies,

.MGX invites you to come and see not

only their unique collection of award-

winning lamps and furniture but also

the ease with which .MGX pieces can be

customized for all types of interior

design and architecture projects.

“At .MGX we understand that life

isn’t always easy. In our daily

lives we tend to get caught up in

getting things done and being

efficient, rather than just ‘being’.

That’s why we challenged some of the

top design minds in the world to use

our very special 3D technologies to

create some very special products.

Lamps and furniture that can brighten

a room, or furnish a house, but that

also soothe the soul and engage both

the imagination and the senses.

Products that create a magical

atmosphere for connecting with

yourself or connecting with friends.”

.MGX by Materialise - Belgium

Manufactured using a variety of 3D

printing methods, the .MGX by

Materialise collection combines

the best of modern and traditional

craftsmanship. Our 3D technologies

allow for the production of shapes

that would otherwise be impossible

to realise. And whether you are

interested in an item from our

collection, or a customisation for

an interior project, each .MGX piece

is individually drawn and created

by laser beam, and carefully finished

by hand.

Quinze & Milan blows out the candles!

Based in Kortrijk, Belgium, Quinze & Milan is celebrating its

10th anniversary this year as a young, energetic manufacturer

of innovative, playful and functional seating, furniture and

accessories. Beginning with its wildly successful Primary Pouf 01,

a block of brightly coloured foam on four legs in a variety of

sizes, the company has expanded from its early focus on foam to

work with materials spanning fabrics, wood and steel to PE and

even concrete. Its popular production pieces, designed by Scott

Wilson, Marc Thorpe, Clive Wilkinson, Wiel Arets, Gitta Gschwendtner

and others, join custom and limited edition works created by and

for Jürgen Mayer H., Tord Boontje and such high-profile projects

as OMA/ Rem Koolhaas’s Seattle Public Library and others.

Quinze & Milan is not a typical furniture label but an avant-garde

platform for collaborations, a think tank and factory for ideas,

designs, visual culture, concepts and experiments. It’s this

approach that made the brand turn into a successful label that

guarantees rock ‘n roll, creativity, comfort, quality, excitement

and ingenuity!

During INTERIEUR 2010, Quinze & Milan celebrates its 10th anniversary

with a special private party, featuring DJ sets and special gigs by

Belgian Electro-Pop band Vive La Fête. Check out page 8 to win tix!
