Recently the furniture and design world lost one of the greatest masters of laminated wood. Hopkins established his reputation for the highest degree of craftsmanship in wood by creating elaborate and playful designs that united different functions of furniture into a single work. Not often does one come across a chair whose limbs’ include both a lamp and a bookshelf. The custom lounge chair with ottoman is a fantastic example of Hopkins’ creativity and ingenuity. He defied existing possibilities by creating works in peculiar, curvaceous, and highly original forms. Todd Merrill is excited to present this iconic piece that captures the spirit of Hopkins’ oeuvre. |
