In the spirit of the midcentury Case Study House program, Gil Le Bon De Lapointe and Pierre Andre Senizergues have launched <a href="http://www.skatestudyhouse.com"> Skate Study House, </a> a furniture design firm whose pieces often bear the influence of modern masters. The Jet Set lounge chair shown here, which sells for $4,495, is an hommage to the 1928 Le Corbusier C4 chaise longue. Eight skateboard decks are set on a metal frame and topped with cushions made of neoprene, the same material used for wetsuits, so the piece can be used indoors or outdoors.
