Roche Bobois
Also called Roche-Bobois, RocheBobois, Roche & Bobois
French luxury furniture house founded in Paris in 1960, known for modular sofas, bold contemporary design, and high-end craftsmanship.
Founded in Paris in 1960 through a partnership between the Roche and Chouchan families, Roche Bobois is a premier French design house celebrated for modern luxury and contemporary art de vivre. Made in specialized European workshops, the brand's furniture blends avant-garde form with meticulous craftsmanship and custom upholstery.
Roche Bobois is renowned for modular statement pieces and high-profile creative collaborations. Iconic designs include Hans Hopfer’s low-profile Mah Jong modular sofa from 1971 and Sacha Lakic’s cloud-like Bubble sofa, along with collections developed alongside designers such as Christophe Delcourt and haute couture houses like Jean Paul Gaultier and Missoni.
Authentic pieces feature woven fabric labels sewn inside upholstery seams, metal logo plaques affixed to frame corners, or stamped markings on cushion hardware.
Pre-owned Roche Bobois furniture holds up remarkably well due to robust European hardwood framing, high-resilience foam cores, and premium textiles. Designed for longevity, these sculptural forms retain their comfort, structural integrity, and architectural presence across decades of daily use.
