Oud Architecture
Many pieces borrow their names from ancient Egyptian mythology — Kephri the scarab of rebirth, Sobek the crocodile deity, Nout the sky goddess — a recurring reference that gives the collection a sense of ritual weight, rendered in noble materials like walnut, bronze, leather and hand-patinated steel.
The Old Cataract Armchair takes its name from the legendary hotel overlooking the Nile at Aswan, a place steeped in the golden age of travel, and channels that same sense of storied elegance into a limited edition of eight pieces plus one artist’s proof from Oud Architecture, the Paris studio of Marie-Sarah Burckel and Josselin Berteloot.
Built from stainless steel, leather and walnut, the armchair is finished with passementerie details — the ornamental trimwork historically found in grand hotel interiors — that soften its architectural lines with an unexpected touch of decorative craft. The mix of cool metal, warm wood and tactile leather gives the chair a sense of well-traveled, understated glamour.

OUD is an architecture and design studio based in Paris, founded by Marie-Sarah Burckel and Josselin Berteloot. The name chosen by the duo is polysemous: OUD refers simultaneously to a type of wood, a perfume essence, and a musical instrument, thus expressing the idea that material genrates emotion. OUD designs and realises private and public living spaces. Like the architects of the 1950s who inspire them — Luis Barragan, Carlo Scarpa, and Charlotte Perriand — Marie-Sarah Burckel and Josselin Berteloot design interiors down to the custom furniture. OUD does not follow trends, exploring instead the dialogue between past and present. They create places and objects that exist outside of time, giving the impression of having always been there.
