Concept and Design

The Archibald seatings by Jean-Marie Massaud are the perfect combination of substance and form. The Archibald collection boasts a comfortable and enveloping design ideal for meditation and relaxation. The breadth and depth of the seat is balanced by the thin feet, which give an agile and slender overall effect. In the Archibald armchair upholstery, pleasantly wavy with its series of vertical folds, is embellished along the edges and external surfaces by contrast stitching, giving it an extra touch of refined elegance.

Designed by
Jean-Marie Massaud

Born in Toulouse in 1966, Jean-Marie Massaud graduated in 1990 from Les Ateliers, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle, Paris. He began to work both in Asia and in France, finally opening his own office in Paris in 1994. Since than, he has dedicated himself to industrial and furniture design, building important relationships with brands such as Authentics, Baccarat and Magis. His collaboration with Marc Berthier and his work in the field of town planning led him towards design and architecture. He is concerned with design in various contexts, industrial products and furniture. His contextual approach centres on research into the essential, within which the individual remains the centre of attention. It is a work upheld by research into the senses, magic, and vital emotion which brings him to work with very different brands: Cassina, Poltrona Frau, Cappellini, Cacharel, Lancôme, Tronconi and Yamaha offshore.

His works have been awarded several prizes and many of his designs are nowadays on show in the design collections of the major museums worldwide: from Amsterdam, Chicago, London, Paris and Zurich: from the permanent collection of the Musée National d'Art Moderne de Paris to the permanent collections of the Museum für Gestaltung, Zürich, of The Chicago Athenaeum- Museum of Architecture and Design, of The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam and of The Musée des arts Décoratifs, Paris.

The Archibald Large Armchair with Wood Base by Poltrona Frau combines the majestic presence of its “large” dimensions with the warm, natural appeal of a wooden base, offering a furnishing solution that transforms any space into an environment of well-being, conviviality, and timeless style. This armchair is ideal for those seeking a generously sized, enveloping seat with strong visual impact, without sacrificing the charm of natural materials and the excellence of Italian craftsmanship.

 

In a spacious living room, open-plan area, or loft, the Archibald Large Wood Base becomes the focal point of the relaxation zone, capable of accommodating multiple people and providing superior comfort for reading, conversation, or pure relaxation. The wooden base, available in a range of wood types and finishes, adds a sense of warmth and authenticity, making the armchair perfectly suited to family homes, holiday residences, chalets, or mountain lodges, where wood and natural materials take center stage.

 

This armchair also integrates harmoniously into Scandinavian, Japandi, or Nordic interiors, where the dialogue between wood, natural light, and generous spaces creates a refined and soothing atmosphere. The combination of upholstery and wooden base allows for extensive customization, enabling the armchair to adapt both to neutral color palettes and to bolder, more contrasting design schemes.

 

In hotel lounges, resorts, boutique hotels, or exclusive clubs, the Archibald Large Wood Base offers guests a premium comfort experience, conveying attention to detail, hospitality, and sophistication. Its strong visual presence also makes it an ideal choice for waiting areas, professional studios, home libraries, or high-end home offices, helping to create a warm and welcoming ambiance.

 

The armchair is equally perfect for home cinemas, TV areas, or entertainment spaces that require a spacious, comfortable seat with significant visual impact. In master bedrooms, suites, or large sleeping areas, the Archibald Large Wood Base becomes a personal retreat, ideal for creating a reading or meditation corner immersed in an atmosphere of natural luxury.

 

The option to choose from various wood species and finishes allows the armchair to be tailored to bespoke interior design projects, meeting the needs of those who seek personalization, quality, and uniqueness. In minimalist settings, the wooden base adds depth and warmth, turning the armchair into a true statement piece that enhances the overall perception of the space.
