Atelier Véronique de Soultrait

At the heart of the Véronique de Soultrait workshop, a new craft skill was born: thread and rope marquetry applied to interior decoration and design.

Wall panels, screens, headboards, drawer fronts…, Véronique de Soultrait imagines numerous creations, as elegant as they are refined, intended for the high end of the decoration market. Inspired by the work of lace and macramé, this passionate artist enriches the traditional work of knitting by applying it to rope, borrowing from marquetry and trimmings for unique decorations resulting from a skilful blend. In a dialogue with the material, this former painter-decorator plays with the textures, personalizes each work and takes care of the smallest detail.

« My goal is to create beauty and play with established codes »

Atelier Toporkoff

Atelier Toporkoff is a studio dedicated to the creation and production of contemporary stained glass, founded in Paris by Sophie Toporkoff.

Driven by her love for drawing, honed during her ten years as Creative Director at Hermès, she makes it the starting point of all her creations.

Her stained glass works are an endless medium for imagination: pop reinterpretations of Cistercian interlacing, a graphic and geometric bestiary, neo-medieval floral visions… they follow the thread of imagination, reinventing themselves with each new creation.

Continuing a contemporary and eclectic vision of stained glass, the studio creates its own designs and collaborates with numerous talents from all over the world, often from fields far removed from traditional stained glass. Whether whimsical, classical, abstract, or edgy, their works share a graphic, narrative, and colourful vocabulary – the hallmark of Atelier Toporkoff’s stained glass.

While the studio has mastered the ancestral skills inherited from a long stained glass tradition in France, it often seeks to subvert them, pushing its pursuit of excellence toward innovative techniques.

Moinard-Bétaille

Warm minimalism, sobriety without austerity, elegance and timelessness: the work of Bruno Moinard and Claire Bétaille is defined around these qualifiers. And also around a certain approach to luxury, a way of looking at things that consists of erasing effects, of making the unseen precious, and of abounding in the art of detail and finish. Creating new spaces while revisiting others, the Moinard-Bétaille creations are works made to measure in order to retranslate references from the past while remaining contemporary, to give warmth to the most stripped down interior, and to cultivate the art of simplicity. Far from being ascetic, it carries within it something dreamlike. Because, here, minimalism is always full of meaning, and brought to the human scale.

ART DE VIVRE is born of a passion between four partners of different cultural walks of life, whose common denominator is the love of beauty and exceptional interiors.
An Art de Vivre that manifests itself in the art of living and integrating refined furniture into elegant and harmonious interiors.
