<p>Boston Design Guide spent the afternoon chatting with Sacha Lakic, the ingenious French designer behind some of <a href="http://www.bostondesignguide.com/content/roche-bobois-contemporary-inter... Bobois</a>' most iconic pieces.</p><p><img alt="An Afternoon with Sacha Lakic at Roche Bobois" class="attr__format__media_original attr__typeof__foaf:Image img__fid__16722 img__view_mode__media_original media-image" src="http://bostondesignguide.com/sites/default/files/12045656_10153842623474... style="height:599px; width:900px" /></p><p>The Synopsis sofa, the Speed Up sideboard, the Scenario sofa and the Bubble sofa are all Lakic's beautifully-engineered creations, and he has won several awards as well as global recognition for this work.</p><p><img alt="An Afternoon with Sacha Lakic for Roche Bobois" class="attr__format__media_original attr__typeof__foaf:Image img__fid__16718 img__view_mode__media_original media-image" src="http://www.bostondesignguide.com/sites/default/files/Screen%20Shot%20201... style="height:606px; width:974px" /></p><p><em>The Scenario sofa features movable back cushions, letting you alter the shape of the piece for different events or occasions.</em></p><p>Lakic, the “Master of Motion,” has always been fascinated by speed and movement, and began his design career in the showrooms of Peugeot, Alain Carre, and eventually MBK-Yamaha, where he made his mark on everything from concept bikes to mass-produced models. Lakic later opened his own showroom, and began designing motorbikes, furniture, watches, and fashion accessories.</p><p><img alt="An Afternoon with Sacha Lakic at Roche Bobois" class="attr__format__media_original attr__typeof__foaf:Image img__fid__16719 img__view_mode__media_original media-image" src="http://www.bostondesignguide.com/sites/default/files/Screen%20Shot%20201... style="height:602px; width:808px" /></p><p><em>The Synopsis sofa reclines and a headrest extends, providing the ultimate relaxation spot. </em></p><p>With <a href="http://www.bostondesignguide.com/content/roche-bobois-contemporary-inter... Bobois</a>, Lakic is able to use his creativity and imagination to design furniture that is dynamic and forward-thinking, and inspired by the futuristic motorbikes he finds beautiful and fascinating.</p><p><img alt="An Afternoon with Sacha Lakic at Roche Bobois" class="attr__format__media_original attr__typeof__foaf:Image img__fid__16720 img__view_mode__media_original media-image" src="http://www.bostondesignguide.com/sites/default/files/Screen%20Shot%20201... style="height:608px; width:962px" /></p><p><em>The Bubble couch.

He has an eye for harmony, and ensures that even the smallest details look extraordinary, like the stitching and fabric. </p>
