This season, Hayes Valley’s blink-and-you-might-miss-it home boutique Lotus Bleu—named after one of the Adventures of Tintin, a 1930s Belgian comics series—is supplying the design world with the furniture version of LSD: Milo Baughman–style midcentury chairs that have been reupholstered in bold, botanical-print linen fabrics by Robert le Héros. We love the Grenadine slipper chair, now wearing a fiery orange number, but our favorite is this mustard-gold corduroy-covered seat. They may not be the right pieces of furniture for a ’60s-style bed-in, but take comfort in knowing that you didn’t have to alter any brain cells to get countercultured.
