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 Sobek Sofa takes its name from the ancient Egyptian crocodile deity associated with strength and fertility, an apt reference for a piece whose gouged walnut structure has the textured, almost hide-like surface of reptilian skin, produced by Oud Architecture in a limited edition of eight pieces plus one artist’s proof.
Upholstered in Duke velvet mohair from Pierre Frey in a rich chocolate tone, the sofa’s plush seating contrasts with its solid walnut frame and side table, accented with solid brass details that catch the light along the wood’s gouged grooves. The result is a piece that feels simultaneously primal and luxurious, weighty in presence yet inviting in comfort.

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.
