During Milan Design Week 2025, Felix Godard Design unveiled “Psukhe,” a groundbreaking new initiative that delves into the crossroads of future-oriented narrative and avant-garde design. Showcased as part of the third installment of LABÒ Cultural Experience, “Psukhe” signifies the progression of Felix Godard’s design ideology. Renowned for his work in the automotive sector, including designing the interior of Porsche’s first electric car and leading the design of Europe‘s inaugural hydrogen-powered sedan, Godard leveraged his skills to create collectible furniture, merging storytelling with industrial craftsmanship.
At the heart of the “Psukhe” assortment lies the Psukhe Armchair, the pioneering item in a lineup influenced by Godard’s upcoming science fiction book, “Psukhetele“. Conceived as early as 2017, this collection merges the realms of science fiction and practical design. By blending engineering, artisanal craftsmanship, and storytelling elements, Godard pushes the limits of traditional design, creating items that are equally useful and forward-thinking.
The project showcases two unique color themes: Blue Episteme and Nous White. Blue Episteme, inspired by the Greek notion of knowledge, boasts a soft ash blue base, accented with subtle grays and cyan tones, and adorned with felted wool trim and premium automotive finishes for a solid, imposing appearance. In stark contrast, Nous White takes inspiration from the Greek idea of perception. It merges delicate lavender hues with metallic blues, fine mesh trims, and matte textures, creating a tactile, ethereal feel.
In crafting “Psukhe”, techniques similar to those used in automotive design are employed. Every creation starts as a hand-drawn sketch that is then transformed digitally, leading to a physical model made of hard foam at full scale. The structural soundness, equilibrium, use of materials, and proportions are thoroughly examined and perfected, resulting in designs that are both detailed and inventive. This laborious process emphasizes the harmony between cutting-edge technology and artistic ingenuity, setting a new benchmark in the realm of collectible design.
