Chez Antoinette Poisson Ou L'art De Vivre Au Fil Des Saisons

Heritage restorers specialising in wallpaper, Vincent Farelly and Jean-Baptiste Martin set up À Paris chez Antoinette Poisson in 2012, where they bring dominoté wallpaper back to life. In their Paris studio, named after the Marquise de Pompadour, born Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson, an art and wallpaper lover who lived during the golden age of dominoté wallpaper, the duo print and create designs for renowned houses such as Gucci, Ladurée and Diptyque.

This book presents the Lescop house in Port-Louis, Brittany, bought and restored by the artist couple. In this historic residence, which has retained its original 18th-century décor, they have fitted out their new home with elegant decorative touches, including dominoté papers - from flowers to fauna and geometry to ikat.

Celebrating an art of living all about the charm of the XVIIIᵉ century, its objects, its gastronomy, its skills, they share at the heart of this book their life far from Paris to the rhythm of the seasons, between shellfish fishing, summer markets, second-hand goods, indigo textile dyeing and block printing on handmade paper.
