CROISSANT ARMCHAIR
SOPHIE DRIES
Sophisticated lines with a touch of the smallest French indulgences: the Croissant armchair by Sophie Dries is a remarkable design that takes center stage in any setting. Defined by its polygonal shape, the frame features sharp angles and clean lines, softened by plush velvet upholstery. The sofa's backrest and armrests follow the polygonal contour, creating a cohesive and visually striking piece. Bold and innovative, its aesthetic captures the sophistication and creativity of past eras with a contemporary twist.

Architect and designer Sophie Dries founded her Paris studio in 2014, later expanding to Milan. A graduate of ENSA Paris-Malaquais and Aalto University, with additional training in Contemporary Art at L’École du Louvre, she honed her craft with Jean Nouvel, Pierre Yovanovitch, and Christian Liaigre before establishing her own practice.
Her work spans architecture, collectible design, and ceramics, with pieces presented at Salone del Mobile, PAD London, The Salon Art + Design New York, and exhibited by Nilufar (Milan), Giustini /Stagetti (Rome), and L’Eclaireur (Paris & LA).
Dries approaches each project through the Genius Loci—the spirit of place—merging heritage, craftsmanship, and contemporary sensibility. Influenced by the Enlightenment and Arte Povera, her aesthetic unites natural materials, artisanal expertise, and refined modernity.
Named among AD’s Top 100 Designers (2022) and featured in Phaidon’s World’s Best Interior Designers, Sophie Dries continues to shape private residences, boutiques, and cultural spaces from her studios in Paris and Milan.
