76 www.incollect.com RANCHOMIRAGE In the low-slung concrete and glass residence of interior designer Jean-Claude Huon, a sandblasted beam ceiling, the knots picked out in whitewash, plaster walls, and a rough concrete floor form a rustic, masculine envelope for a curated collection of art and vintage furniture. On the wall above the sofa is an early nineteenth-century Japanese screen, and a midcentury abstract painting is by Russian artist André Lanskoy. The vintage 1970s buffalo hide lounge chairs and sofa by de Sede, surrounding a hammered bronze frame glass-topped coffee table. The classic Eames lounge chair was conceived by Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller in 1956 and is still hugely popular today. Its iconic design combines a three-section molded plywood shell with soft but supportive leather cushioning. “The chair should have the warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman’s mitt,” Charles Eames said. Nearby, the Triennale floor lamp 12128, with its distinctive articulated arms, is by Angelo Lelii, designed in 1947 for Italian lighting manufacturer Arredoluce. Photo: Copyright © 2025 Dan Flood
