Price: Price on request

A rare and sculptural leather pouf designed by Lowie Vermeersch for the Belgian manufacturer Durlet in 1999. This piece reflects the innovative spirit of late‑20th‑century Belgian design, where craftsmanship, ergonomics, and expressive form came together in bold, contemporary ways.

The pouf features an organic, four‑lobed silhouette; soft, rounded, and inviting from every angle. Its playful geometry is characteristic of Vermeersch’s design language, which often blends fluid forms with functional clarity. The piece sits low and grounded, making it both a comfortable seating element and a striking sculptural object within a room.

Upholstered in supple leather, the pouf showcases Durlet’s renowned expertise in leatherwork. The stitching, paneling, and subtle shaping highlight the brand’s commitment to precision and longevity. The leather has developed a gentle patina, adding depth and character without compromising its refined appearance.

Created in 1999, this piece belongs to a period when Belgian designers were gaining international recognition for their thoughtful, human‑centered approach. Vermeersch, known for his work in both furniture and automotive design, brought a unique sensibility to Durlet, merging comfort with sculptural experimentation.

This pouf works beautifully as a standalone accent, a casual seating option, or a playful addition to a contemporary interior. Its bold form and rich leather surface make it a natural focal point in living rooms, lounges, or creative spaces.
