Nicolas Roche talks about the stellar pieces in the showroom of the furniture brand founded
At the recent official opening of Roche Bobois in Singapore, the top French retailer of luxurious home furnishings, guests were given a sneak preview of its latest collections. That elicited admiration from the crowd, with each collection being given a fascinating introduction. And we can see why.
No matter the age of the series, each exudes audacious beauty and form, as well as a sense of timelessness (designs that date back to the ’70s amaze with how they still look at home in any contemporary space and setting).
Taking pride of place in the swanky 5,300 sq ft roadfacing showroom along Bukit Timah Road is the latest piece de resistance, Globe Trotter, a bold travel-themed collection by Dutch designer Marcel
Wanders. “Globe Trotter tells a story; it’s about travelling and exploring places and discovering new things, with whimsical motifs and influences drawn from Marcel’s explorations in London, Paris and Istanbul,” says Nicolas Roche, creative director of Roche Bobois who was here to grace the opening of the showroom.
