French Refreshed is Divine
Coffee table books are dime a dozen and one can stroll through bargain bins to find some interesting reads filled with gorgeous photos that play a role in eluding the viewer to believe they have a design aesthetic or a feel for good taste.
French Refreshed is the actual opposite because it is an original. From the language and brief excerpts of history to the angle of shots and variety of content, turning the pages led to more and more fascinating spaces that made the heart skip a beat. Design is about dimensions, comfort and function. Good design is about a feeling and Fine French Furnishings were, are and always will be from an era of superiority that awakens that feeling for all design lovers.
The pages are filled with regal finishes, exquisite details and seamless classic style. Our favourite feature of the book is the historical timeline depicted through a transition of the fusion of French design and décor with everyday life. It has transcended from a staple for the aristocrats and grand hotels to people's homes filled with hand-selected pieces and delicate artifacts. As the pages turn, so does the conversion of French aesthetics mixing into different landscapes and more interestingly with various era pieces. The juxtaposition of a modern furnishing paired with a classical French feature brings about comfortable glamour that is attainable and durable to the test of design time and promotes the reader to live artfully.
