"Amphibious" Settee Sofa, Steve Chase, 1980's

$ 12,000
  • Description
    Designed by Steve Chase in the 1980's this modern sofa was called the "Amphibious" sofa. With its super curvy, marshmallow shape and sumptuous cotton chenille fabric, this sofa is definitely a showstopper.

    This gorgeous postmodern sofa came out of the most beautiful home in the Beverly Park neighborhood of Beverly Hills. The sofa was upholstered to match a Vladimir Kagan Serpentine sofa that my gallery has also acquired.

    This sofa is currently in the gallery with a Paul Evans coffee table, flanked by a B&B Italia Le Bambole lounge chair and not only does this sofa hold its own, it steals the show. This sofa would look great in any Mid-Century Modern, modern, or postmodern environment. Great design, with curves for days.

    Steve Chase (1945-1989) was an American furniture designer and interior decorator who gained recognition for his sophisticated and contemporary designs in the 1970s and 1980s. Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Chase moved to California in the 1960s, where he began his career in the design industry.

    Chase's signature style was characterized by a mix of textures and materials, often combining leather, wood, metal, and stone to create bold and luxurious furniture pieces. His designs were modern and sleek, yet also warm and inviting, with a strong focus on comfort and functionality.

    Chase's work was featured in numerous high-profile publications, including Architectural Digest and House Beautiful, and his clients included many prominent celebrities and business leaders. He designed furniture for the likes of Barbra Streisand, Robert Redford, and Joan Collins, as well as for luxury hotels and resorts around the world.

    In addition to his furniture design work, Chase was also a respected interior decorator, and his projects included the Beverly Hills home of actor Alan Ladd, as well as the renovation of the California Governor's Mansion in Sacramento.

    Chase was known for his attention to detail and commitment to quality, and his designs continue to be sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts alike. Despite his untimely death in 1989, his legacy lives on through his furniture designs and his contributions to the world of interior design.
