Artistic Direction
Interior architecture and decoration
“Beauty is nothing but the promise of happiness.”
— Stendhal
A successful interior is not assembled, it is composed. Like a couture collection, it is born from a singular vision, shaped by those who will live in it.
We have only one purpose: to hand you the keys to a place where you and your loved ones will be happy, and where every room and every detail will delight you day after day.
The studio
From the first plan to a home ready to live in
Our studio brings together a team of interior architects, graphic designers and project management assistants. We oversee all of our interior architecture projects, whatever the scope of the works, across Provence, from the Alpilles to the Luberon, and on the French Riviera.
For each project, we select the most suitable contractors and craftsmen from among our trusted partners. We coordinate them right through to the handover of a home ready to live in. If you plan to rent out your property, we work with your concierge service so that it is ready to welcome its first guests.
Space planning
Your way of life, by design
The layout of each room is yours to decide. We present proposals designed to fit your habits and to add lasting value to your property. You choose the layout of each room and the placement of fitted joinery and furniture.
What you decide
- The layout of each room
- The placement of fitted joinery and furniture
- The approval of our artistic intention
What we choose for you
- The decoration, as a whole
- Materials, colours and fabrics
- Furniture, lighting and objects
- Every detail, without back-and-forth
Artistic direction
From your aspirations comes our creation, our signature
Everything begins with you
We do not create projects for magazines: we create interiors that reflect our clients and enhance the property they have just acquired.
From the very start of the project, we send you a detailed questionnaire about your lifestyle, your tastes and your habits: we could not begin our creative work without fully understanding your aspirations, in every detail.
We also show you a wide selection of images to annotate, so that we can refine our understanding of your world even further. You do not need to be able to explain what you like: your reactions tell us far more.
Then, we set the direction
We bring together your aspirations, the architecture of the place, the value of the property and its future use. From this dialogue an artistic intention emerges: the atmosphere, the colour palette, the key materials.
Once this intention is approved, the decoration is in our hands: materials, colours, fabrics, lighting, furniture and objects are chosen by our team, without back-and-forth on every detail. We then handle the orders, their follow-up and the installation, down to the very last object put in place.
We present a single artistic signature, which sets the direction for the entire property.
What our standards offer you
I · Exclusivity
A creation that exists nowhere else, designed for your home, its architecture, your personality and your way of life. Never a standardised decoration, never a copy of an existing interior.
II · A fully realised vision
As in a couturier’s atelier, the research, the trials and the alternatives happen beforehand, away from view. For long hours, our team explores, combines, compares and sets aside many possibilities. What we present to you is the fruit of this patient work, guided by the eye and the hand of our team. No artificial intelligence goes into our creations.
III · Peace of mind
A project means thousands of decisions. You do not need to arrive with the answers: finding them is our job. You keep control of the choices that matter, the centrepieces of your project, and we take care of all the others. The project becomes what it should be: a pleasure.
IV · A project under control
An approved direction means a project that moves forward without detours: no back-and-forth on every choice, no successive design revisions, which incur additional fees, and no late changes on site.
V · Picture it with confidence
Because an interior architecture project is a significant investment, we produce 3D visualisations so you can grasp the volumes, the proportions and the main fittings before they are built.
Even the most beautiful 3D renderings cannot fully convey the depth of materials, the subtleties of fabrics, natural light or the quality of handcrafted finishes.
We therefore complete this presentation with samples, materials and concrete references, so that you can approve your investments with complete confidence.
Our visualisations are there to help you understand and appreciate the proposed direction, without multiplying alternatives that could weaken its coherence.

VI · Harmony
“Beauty is the harmony of all the parts, fitted together so that nothing could be added, taken away or altered but for the worse.”
— Leon Battista Alberti, Renaissance architect
Harmony is beauty itself. Materials, volumes, colours, furniture and details are conceived together, each one answering the others. This coherence is preserved down to the last detail, and our craftsmen perform a clear score.
Our commitment
Until the keys are handed over, we stay by your side.
Should any element, once in place, not find its rightful place in your life, we would rework its design, under the terms set out in your contract.
Your trust is the starting point of every creation. In what we present to you, you will recognise your wishes, yet you would never have imagined them this way.
