Parley presented a limited-edition Pierre Paulin, Chirac Sofa, in collaboration with Paulin Paulin Paulin at Art Basel Miami Beach 2024. The fabric of this collectible piece of design was created using the iconic red polypropylene ropes from the monumental artwork by Christo and Jeanne-Claude titled L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped 1961–2021.

As done for previous Christo and Jeanne-Claude projects, all of the materials used to create L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped, are being reused, upcycled, and recycled. The 3,000 meters (9,843 feet) of red polypropylene rope have been processed by Saxa Syntape together with Parley and Paulin Paulin Paulin, the material has been repurposed to upholster the iconic Chirac Sofa, originally created for Paris City Hall in 1988.
