Linteloo Claude Armchair Designed by Guillaume Lopez

Claude armchair by Linteloo, designed by Guillaume Lopez, reinterprets classic form with contemporary restraint and structural clarity.

Built on a metal frame with a foam and polyester-fibre core, Claude offers balanced support within a soft, enclosed shape. The closed oak-veneered base anchors the piece visually, while the sculptural curves reference the 19th-century French crapaud armchair. Upholstery options span fabric or leather from the Linteloo collection or can be client-supplied, offering versatility across formal and relaxed interiors. Ideal beside a low table or within an intimate lounge setting, Claude brings composure and a subtle sense of heritage to both residential and hospitality spaces.

Claude draws on Guillaume Lopez’s ongoing exploration of form, proportion, and material tactility. Inspired by a piece of personal history and shaped by a French design lineage, the armchair reflects Lopez’s training under Bauchet and Jourdan and his experience with global studios. Created in collaboration with Linteloo, a brand known for its grounded, detail-driven approach, Claude bridges refined craftsmanship with historical reference, echoing a broader dialogue between past and present that defines both designer and house.
