Paul László
László’s Californian clients included Cary Grant, Barbara Hutton and Billy Wilder; his archive is today re-edited by Ecart and documented largely through Julius Shulman’s photography held at the Getty Research Institute.
The Rodeo Chair 1947 takes its name from Rodeo Drive, the Beverly Hills street where Paul László maintained his design studio at number 362 for more than twenty-five years after fleeing Europe in 1936. Manufactured originally by Brown Saltman between 1947 and 1953, the chair captures the moment László’s practice shifted from custom residential commissions toward furniture produced for a wider American public.
The frame is turned in tobacco-toned ash finished with a matte varnish and upholstered in Gary Sand Gold, a fabric from Ecart’s own collection, with bespoke fabrics available on request for those seeking a personal variation. Documented through Julius Shulman’s archival photography at the Getty Research Institute and reissued today by Ecart, the Rodeo Chair carries the address of László’s professional life directly into its name.

Paul László (1900–1993) was a Hungarian-born architect and designer whose career bridged European modernism and postwar American luxury. Trained in Stuttgart and active in Vienna during the interwar years, he developed a refined modern language that gained international attention through leading design journals. Fleeing Europe during World War II, he settled in California and became a sought-after architect for industrialists and Hollywood elites, designing meticulously controlled interiors conceived as total works of art. Dubbed “the Rich Man’s Architect,” László combined disciplined elegance with visionary thinking, from bespoke residences and furniture to speculative projects like the underground city Atomville.
