Let\u2019s be honest, never in our lives we would consider televisions as something decorative. We have never seen interior designers get worried if they couldn\u2019t find the \u201cright\u201d television for a certain project. Televisions are pretty useful, and every house must have at least one, but we have never heard TVs being used as a decorative element in a domestic environment.\u00a0French design brand Hipolite<\/strong> <\/em>produces a range of entirely customizable televisions in a haute couture.<\/p>\n

Gladly, with the advance of technology we are now given more appealing designs and much better quality, but they still don\u2019t make it into the home decor section. That\u2019s why Bouroullec Brothers and Samsung put together the Serif TV, a customizable television with high contrast and high lumunosity surrounded by lacquers of different colors.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we were looking for was a solid presence that would sit naturally in any environment, just like a piece of furniture\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hipolite\u2018s\u00a0young team came up with an original solution. Hipolite\u2018s\u00a0founder, Jean Barbier knocked up a wooden frame so that the screen blended into the chalet interior and the idea was born: approaching the tv with customization in mind and thereby propose solutions to meet the needs of every customer.<\/p>\n

Jean Barbier\u2018s encounter with designers, Guillaume Suety, Aur\u00e9lien Bland and the interior designer, Julien Dayet, enabled him to fine the core concept of the product \u2013 cathode-ray tube sets of the 70\u2019s. A fan of vintage design, Jean Barbier hasn\u2019t forgotten the crazy look of Continental Edison\u2019s cult television with its plastic case and tulip-shaped base. \u201d A magnificent piece and a luxury object.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Maison<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

To bring this project to life, the team dedicated two years of research and development. Hipolite<\/a>\u2018s high-tech TVs are the marriage of technology and artisanship and they are 90% made in France. A choice of around ten colors, either matt or gloss, leather, lacquer and metal finishes, the haute couture\u00a0television can be customized at will.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Maison<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The main target is the Hotel and Catering\u00a0market but the brand\u2019s\u00a0haute couture TVs aren\u2019t going to stop there, the company is already working on an outdoor version trying different materials and imagining new designs.<\/p>\n

\u201cProfessionals are looking for designs that are less consensual; they want products that stand out and ring the changes. We have interest from China, India, Singapore and Brazil.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
