When Sé began in 2007, director and founder Pavlo Schtakleff had a goal – to become a dynamic and innovative presence in the world of contemporary luxury design. Sé’s visionary idea was to invite some of the world’s finest furniture designers to produce collections, akin to an art gallery or a couture house, the ultimate object being to build a catalogue of highly-crafted and beautifully-finished objects, made of the finest materials, by the best craftspeople in Europe.
Since then, the London-based company has stayed true to its founding ethos and to date, Sé has created three editions from the French designer Damien Langlois-Meurine, the Spanish-born Jaime Hayon and Slovenia-based Nika Zupanc, all of which have been highly acclaimed. In 2018 Se’ introduced Collection IV created with designer Ini Archibong, which continues and extends Sé’s founding principles of producing furniture that is sumptuous and sculptural, restrained yet expressive, and made to last from the finest noble materials such as bronze and marble. Equally this partnership reflects Sé’s passion for working with emerging designers who share its principles and aesthetic tendencies: the intention being to produce characterful heirloom pieces of exceptional finish.
Under Sé’s stewardship, each collection has its own sensibility and character, while harnessing a personality, polish and sheer sense of finish that is undeniably Sé. All our pieces are the products of the most exacting collaborations. They are sensual, tactile and cerebral, inviting the gaze and the touch as well as engaging the mind.
Curated in London and fabricated across Europe to the highest technical standards, Sé aims to make furniture that not only delights, but also has a real sense of occasion. SwitzerCultCreative™ is honoured to represent Se’ in Western Canada.
