Design
Located in northern France, PETRUS has been profiling and bending corrugated sheet metal for over 60 years. It has exceptional expertise in this field, mainly applied to the agricultural needs of the region. The project, carried out independently in collaboration with the company, has two objectives: to reveal the beauty and technicality of this little-known technical expertise and to disseminate it in functional furniture that can be manufactured in different series.
Designed by Jules Levasseur, the collection includes body-scale furniture: tables, desks, chairs, and armchairs. They experiment with a different relationship with corrugated sheet metal. It becomes structural, comfortable, soft, and sculptural. The combination of different materials transforms this highly industrial material into a noble, highly functional material.
The production methods are hybrid. We can produce series while also developing very unique pieces with finishes close to those of artisanal craftsmanship. This approach is the result of a collaboration between the industrial company and the designer's studio.
