Though multipurpose objects will always have their place in our lives, those designed as objects of beauty are equally important. Jean-Marie Massaud designed the Ad Hoc chair for Viccarbe in this vein; constructed by hand, each piece is inimitable.

Jean-Marie Massaud’s cast brass design results in a lightweight yet high-strength structure

Though the chairs specific pattern varies because of its unique cast brass structure, each blends high design with comfort. The structure is available in lacquered in white, black, or orange finishes that are suitable for indoor or outdoor use, or in 24-karat gold place for low-traffic settings.
