Comfort, elegance, craftsmanship, and a sense of fun are the defining qualities of Baxter, as described by Christophe Delcourt. The French designer first collaborated with Baxter in 2010, and the partnership was renewed in 2021 when he reimagined the Baxter living area for the Milano Worldwide 2021 project. This new collection includes sofas, poufs, and coffee tables, showcasing a blend of curves and modularity through organic forms that seamlessly fit together.
Delcourt often draws inspiration from architectural elements, artworks, assembly techniques, or specific materials for his projects. Baxter’s leather, in particular, inspires the shape and lines of his designs. He praises Baxter’s exceptional skill in working with leather, noting that it adds “a note of comfort and a tactile appeal that invites you to sit down.
