ONYX Sofa by Peugeot Design Lab & Pierre Gimbergues

The ONYX sofa is another outstanding design piece created by Peugeot Design Lab (previously).

The 3-metre long sofa created in collaboration with designer Pierre Gimbergues is made of carbon fibre and volcanic lava stone.

“Separated by means of a sharp straight cut, Volvic stone has spent thousands of years filtering the water for its aquifer, before being hand carved and married to hi-tech carbon fibre with its very structured and technical texture; its shapes precisely adjusted to the volcanic stone.

The ONYX sofa is the illustration of a series of unique pieces of furniture, made to measure, to suit the choice, origin and personality of the customer, but which always respects a common idea: the union, via a pronounced clear cut, between hyper-technological materials – carbon fibre, glass fibre, aluminium… – and raw and natural materials – rock, wood, stone.”
