ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Mah Jong sofa was designed by Hans Hopfer for Roche Bobois. The original design dates back to 1971. Although this is a much later production, probably 15 to 20 years old, it looks as fashionable and relevant today as it has ever been.
In 1950, French businessman Jacques Roche opened a furniture store on Rue de Lyon in the centre of Paris, and was later joined by his two sons, Philippe and François. At the same time in the same city, Patrick and Jean-Claude Chouchan established a furniture store of their own on Boulevard Sébastopol, Au Beau Bois. The future business partners didn’t meet until 1960 at the Scandinavian Furniture Fair, held annually in Copenhagen. Deciding to go into business together, the Roche and Couchan families co-designed their first collection of furniture, introducing both their brand and the Nordic aesthetic to the French market. The following year, a nationwide advertising campaign was launched through Elle magazine, as well as a new brand identity formed from both sides’ names: Roche Bobois.
Today, Roche Bobois counts over 250 stores in 50 different countries, with furniture collections spanning sofas, armchairs, cocktail tables , dining chairs, sideboards , beds, and accessories including lighting , cushions , and rugs . Over the decades Roche Bobois has collaborated with many important contemporary designers including paul Michel, Ora Ito, Cédric Ragot, Sacha Lakic, Christophe Delcourt, and Stephen Burks, as well renowned fashion houses as such as Jean Paul Gaultier (for its 50th anniversary), Sonia Rykiel, and Missoni.
