Float Chaise by Jeanne Scandura

 

FLOAT is the inspiration of an architect who gathered together the skills and insight of fabricators, designers, and strategists who found common ground in a love of art, a passion for innovation, and a belief that well designed furniture can enlighten and enhance the lives of individuals. I first tried the long white float chaise when staying at The Standard in Los Angeles. They have 6 of the lined up next to the rooftop pool.

The founder, Jeanne Scandura, is a practicing architect and educator whose urban office ScanDesign produces works that holistically integrate architecture, landscape architecture, and interior design.

Initial investigations into the convergence of sculpture and furniture involved pouring rubber cushions, casting tabletops, and molding light fixtures. The resulting collection evokes a range of atmospheres from Mediterranean poolside modern to urban loft chic. Translucent materials create a delicate interplay of light, texture, and color. Each piece invites tactile exploration. Surfaces that appear soft are actually quite solid, and those that appear hard are given pliability of form and line.

FLOAT strives to create objects with material integrity that improve over time, respond to the human form, and welcome a dialogue with architectural space. The furniture reflects a joy for experimentation, versatility, and cultural curiosity.
