Information
The René Sofa was designed with simplicity in mind, a quiet piece of furniture that offers the user scope for their own self-expression. Designed by Matthew Hilton, it was important that René’s simple design did not equate to boring: it should be subtle but intriguing. Matthew Hilton describes the shape as having a hint of Art Deco, with just the suggestion of the 1920s and 1930s, as well as a nod to early Roxy Music and Biba. The name René comes from René Lalique, the celebrated French jeweler and glass designer.
