A Year In The French Style

Description

Maison Lescop in Port-Louis, Brittany-the historic residence of an eighteenth-century French importer for the Indian trading company-seemed predestined to become the new home and restoration project for the creative duo behind Antoinette Poisson, a Parisian design team dedicated to reviving the savoir faire of domino paper for home decoration and furnishings. The art historians became enchanted by the poetic beauty of this artisanal craft-derived from an Indian block print technique-when they uncovered original hand-painted eighteenth-century domino wallpaper while restoring a mansion in central France.
