The duo most recently closed their launch show on February 2, 2008 in Paris at Colette (213 rue Saint-Honore 75001 Paris). Here&#8217;s what they say about the show:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>SKATE STUDY HOUSE (SSH) is an innovative design concept specializing in recreating popular furniture through the vision of a skateboarder. The movement of a skateboarder constantly changes &#8212; it recreates itself by transcending boundaries and inventing ways to conquer obstacles. It&#8217;s constantly about anticipation and adaptation to one&#8217;s environment. The same is true for living design. The combination of the two produces a mixture of contemporary lifestyle, art and action sports culture, which is all found in this unique collection.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, Pierra and Gil have taken all the iconographic mid-century furniture and interior designs and made them out of  skateboards (with help from <strong>Jim Gray<\/strong> of Acme). Represented deviations include several <strong>Eames<\/strong> chairs, a <strong>Nelson<\/strong> Platform Bench, Nelson Clock and Coat Rack, and a <strong>Noguchi<\/strong> table. And it&#8217;s all for sale.
