Jover + Valls is an exciting modern Spanish furniture brand that seeks to combine traditional production techniques with innovative technologies for furnishings and decor that offer the best of both worlds. The company is primarily known for stylish seating such as stools, chaise lounges and armchairs. Jover + Valls also produces decorative home accessories like candleholders and throw blankets. 

Jover + Valls is the passion project of Javier Jover and Quico Valls. After earning his BFA at Universitat Politècnica de València, Jover gained experience working with leather by creating fashion accessories for Zara, a multi-national retail clothing brand. Valls, meanwhile, was learning about the intricacies of metalwork, including how to form aesthetic shapes while retaining the strength of the material. 

After two decades of working in their respective industries, Jover and Valls joined forces to build a brand that offers handmade luxury furniture and decor for any space. 

The atelier’s minimalist Wanderlust series draws on Bauhaus-level precision and features subtle details that you might miss at first glance, like in the modest-sized hand-turned nuts and bolts that affix the collection’s tanned cowhide leather seats and surfaces to the stool frames of the group’s armchairs, bar stools and ottomans. It was inspired in part by legendary German-American architect and designer Mies van der Rohe and his wisdom that "less is more."

With ergonomics in mind, Jover + Valls's Hug collection focuses more on the organic shapes and curves found in nature. Each light and airy chaise lounge or bar stool, which resemble the work of iconic modernist designer Charlotte Perriand, is inviting and envelops you in soft leather when you sit down.
