David Lange, the Roche Bobois designer

David Lange is one of those contemporary designers who helped shape the visual identity of furniture edited by Roche Bobois in the 1970s and 80s. His signature? Coffee tables and occasional furniture with sculptural character, playing with materials (lacquer, glass, brushed steel) and architectural proportions. A French signature at the crossroads of late modernism and contemporary bourgeois elegance, now sought after by lovers of edited French design.

David Lange coffee tables, particularly his creations for Roche Bobois, are now hunted second-hand by lovers of late post-war French design. An edited production that proves great French design didn't stop with the heroic figures of the 1950s.
