Humbert & Poyet

Humbert & Poyet are celebrated for their varied design vocabulary, restrained and always elegant, yet audacious in its unexpected combinations. Drawing freely from neoclassical references, mid-century modern forms or Italian design from the 1970s, their interiors are in a class of their own, intriguing by virtue of an ineffable touch and a constant tension between restraint and richness. In this volume, meticulously composed photography captures the studio s bold, assertive, and expressive style in a selection of their most compelling international projects. Among the standout projects highlighted are the spectacular Villa Pineda on the French Riviera, Milan s acclaimed Beefbar, located within the restored chapel of a seventeenth-century seminary, and Josun Palace Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel in Seoul. The studio s residential portfolio is represented through thoughtfully crafted apartments in New York s Tribeca district and in Paris s Tuileries and Marais neighborhoods; a chalet in the Engadin Valley, one of Switzerland s most exclusive Alpine regions; and a seaside villa in Monaco, shown here for the first time.
