The Haussmann Armchair Office by Hugues Chevalier brings the discipline of French design to the workspace — a desk chair conceived not as office equipment but as an extension of interior architecture. Founded in 1978, Hugues Chevalier has built its reputation on upholstered furnishings that carry the restraint and refinement of Parisian ateliers. This designer office armchair distills that heritage into a form built for sustained, focused work.

The silhouette is decisive — sculpted volumes that cradle the body without overwhelming the room. A structured frame supports an enveloping seat and back, engineered for hours at a desk yet shaped with the kind of proportion and line that belongs in a private study or corner office. The base, available in chrome or bronze, anchors the design with a quiet material conviction, catching light like well-chosen hardware on a Haussmann-era door.

At 73 × 71 × 97 cm, the Haussmann Office occupies a compact footprint suited to executive offices, residential studies, and professional meeting rooms where the chair must perform and compose simultaneously. Upholstery may be specified across a range of fabrics and leathers, allowing designers to calibrate tone, texture, and identity — whether coordinating with an existing material palette or establishing a new one.
