Art de vivre

As the land of poetry and good food, France has always cultivated a very unique art de vivre. In 2018, it is a rare Frenchman who would be seen sitting stiffly in a Louis XVI armchair. He would more likely be found sprawling on a pile of foam blocks (Les Marches by Stéphanie Marin and Céleste Boursier-Mougenot) or curled up on a Ploum sofa (Ligne Roset) while watching a Sérif television (Samsung), both by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec and reaching for a steaming cup of tea encased in a distinctive tasse surprise et sa soucoupe set by Bruno Moretti ( Bernardaud) on a Baobab side table by Ionna Vautrin (Moustache) bathed in the soft halo of transcendant light (Lord Light lamp by Christian Ghion for Forestier). What an ideal context for relaxation and cultural connections!
