LA CHANCE

What LA CHANCE does

La Chance is a French high-end furniture publishing house founded in 2012 in Paris by Jean-Baptiste Souletie and Louise Breguet. The company curates and produces furniture, lighting, rugs, wallpapers, and home accessories designed by a network of approximately 20 designers representing 12 nationalities, including Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, Note Design Studio, Hannes Peer, Sebastian Herkner, Marta Bakowski and Luca Nichetto. Production is outsourced to skilled European artisans using premium materials such as marble (Nero Marquina, Pele de Tigre), Murano and Bohemian glass, Pierre Frey fabrics, and gold and silver leaf applied by master craftsmen.

The commercial model combines a standard made-to-order collection (chairs, sofas, tables, lighting, mirrors, rugs) sold at fixed but quote-based prices with a bespoke 'bureau de création' program for architects and interior designers, and numbered limited-edition pieces sold at premium prices (e.g., six numbered editions of the Ronin Material Chairs). Distribution runs through the company's e-commerce site (lachance.paris), two Paris locations — a showroom at 4 rue de la Pierre Levée and a flagship gallery opened in 2025 at 60 rue de Richelieu — a partnered showroom in New York's SoHo (with Atelier Alain Ellouz), and a global network of distributors that accounts for 70% of export sales across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Marketing is anchored in trade fair presence (Maison&Objet, Salone del Mobile, PAD Paris, Paris Design Week), gallery collaborations (Galerie Ketabi Bourdet, Galerie Christophe Dupouy, Inside Gallery, Private Choice, The Invisible Collection), and press coverage in Elle Decoration NL and Dezeen. A second brand, Mouvement (mvmt.work), extends the publishing model to the office and workspace vertical for Design & Build firms, space planners and architects.
