Concept and Design
With the Lloyd storage units and bookcases Jean-Marie Massaud designs a system of variable geometries. Thin vertical wooden rods create light grilles that run from top to bottom on invisible horizontal rails. Each grille can be moved as desired to create sequences that are different each time. A fluctuating score of solids and voids, of light and shade. A sensual game that offers a glimpse of the contents, books and objects without fully revealing them. The most advanced technology is combined with traditional materials, wood and saddle leather, to form a solid and minimalist structure.

Born in Toulouse in 1966, Jean-Marie Massaud graduated in 1990 from Les Ateliers, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle, Paris. He began to work both in Asia and in France, finally opening his own office in Paris in 1994. Since than, he has dedicated himself to industrial and furniture design, building important relationships with brands such as Authentics, Baccarat and Magis. His collaboration with Marc Berthier and his work in the field of town planning led him towards design and architecture. He is concerned with design in various contexts, industrial products and furniture. His contextual approach centres on research into the essential, within which the individual remains the centre of attention. It is a work upheld by research into the senses, magic, and vital emotion which brings him to work with very different brands: Cassina, Poltrona Frau, Cappellini, Cacharel, Lancôme, Tronconi and Yamaha offshore.

His works have been awarded several prizes and many of his designs are nowadays on show in the design collections of the major museums worldwide: from Amsterdam, Chicago, London, Paris and Zurich: from the permanent collection of the Musée National d'Art Moderne de Paris to the permanent collections of the Museum für Gestaltung, Zürich, of The Chicago Athenaeum- Museum of Architecture and Design, of The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam and of The Musée des arts Décoratifs, Paris.

The Lloyd Low Cabinet by Poltrona Frau is designed for those who want a storage piece capable of combining order, architectural presence, and visual lightness. Designed by Jean-Marie Massaud, it interprets storage through a system of sliding solid oak grids that alter the perception of the piece and create a refined interplay of solids and voids, light and shadow. It is an ideal furnishing solution for those looking for a designer low sideboard or storage unit that does not feel closed and compact, but instead interacts with the surrounding space in a more dynamic and sophisticated way.

 

In a contemporary living room, the Lloyd Low Cabinet is particularly suitable for those who want to organize books, decorative objects, accessories, or multimedia devices while maintaining an orderly composition that is not completely concealed. The movable grids allow parts of the contents to remain visible, creating an elegant partially concealed effect that makes the cabinet feel lighter and more visually interesting. It is a particularly suitable choice for people who want storage without fully closing everything away, especially in interiors where order needs to coexist with the beauty of selected objects, art books, or decorative pieces.

 

Its low height makes it highly effective for a wide range of applications. It can function as a low sideboard in the living room, as a refined base within a wall system, as an important piece behind a sofa in an open-plan space, or as a storage unit placed beneath artworks, mirrors, or large decorative elements. It is ideal for those who want to furnish the space horizontally, giving structure to the room without introducing volumes that are too tall. In this sense, it is particularly well suited to homes with large walls, open interiors, or living rooms where maintaining an airy and orderly perception is important.

 

From a materials perspective, the Lloyd Low Cabinet clearly appeals to those who appreciate the combination of wood, leather, and high-level construction details. This combination makes the product particularly suitable for interiors where material warmth, visual solidity, and artisanal precision are sought. It can fit naturally into homes with parquet flooring, leather furnishings, wood tables, statement rugs, and neutral or deep color palettes, making it ideal for those looking for a low cabinet capable of conveying quality without ostentation.

 

The nature of the product also makes it especially interesting for those with precise functional needs. The low cabinet can be a convincing choice for people looking for a high-end TV unit, a living room storage piece capable of accommodating books and objects, or an elegant sideboard for representative spaces. Its visually open yet controlled structure makes it more sophisticated than a traditional technical cabinet, especially in interiors where electronics, storage, and aesthetics need to coexist harmoniously. It is an ideal solution for those who want to integrate function into the interior design without sacrificing stylistic consistency.

 

In a private study, home office, or representative professional environment, the Lloyd Low Cabinet can also play a highly effective role. In executive offices, meeting rooms, lounges, professional studios, and showrooms, it allows materials, books, samples, or institutional objects to be organized within a piece that communicates design culture and attention to detail. It is particularly suitable for those who want storage with authority but without severity, capable of bringing order while also creating a certain perceptual softness through the vertical rhythm of the grids and the presence of leather.

 

The Lloyd Low Cabinet is especially appealing to those who seek quiet luxury built on proportions, materials, and intelligent mechanisms rather than showy effects. In warm minimalist, modern-classic, or high-end contemporary interiors, this low cabinet can define a wall and build atmosphere without dominating the room excessively. It is therefore a particularly suitable choice for people who appreciate furniture that can be functional, refined, and visually light at the same time.
