The Hermès Pippa range is a line of foldable and easy-to-move furniture that was imagined by Rena Dumas and Peter Coles, in the Hermès spirit of “moving with elegance”.
It was not until 1983 that Rena Dumas began designing wood furniture. This desk and seat by Dumas in collaboration with Peter Coles, are completely collapsible, folding to the depth of a briefcase. Dumas said of the concept: “Beyond beauty or ugliness, [folding furniture] has a supplementary dimension, a kind of added value… Well made, it lives in harmony with its user.”
Both the desk and seat are considered worthy inclusions in the collection at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.
