Rick Owens has long held architecture as one of his greatest influences, looking to the logic of architects such as Le Corbusier and the grandeur of brutalist buildings for inspiration. His Double Bubble chair demonstrates minimal detail on a large scale through geometric shapes, clean lines and materials presented in their natural state, such as this edition’s Tigré plywood.
Artist
Rick Owens
Rick Owens grew up in Porterville, a small town in California’s San Joaquin valley. Drawn to pre-gentrified Hollywood and L.A.’s punk underground in the 80s, Owens studied painting at what is now Otis College of Art and Design. He then switched to Los Angeles Trade Technical-College to learn pattern-making and draping.
