En savoir plus sur le livre
The founders of Antoinette Poisson invite readers into their historic Atlantic coast townhouse, showcasing a style of entertaining steeped in French tradition and elegance. Maison Lescop, once the residence of an 18th-century French importer in Port-Louis, Brittany, became the restoration project for this Parisian design duo committed to reviving the art of domino paper for home decor. Their passion for this artisanal craft, rooted in an Indian block print technique, blossomed when they discovered original hand-painted domino wallpaper during a restoration in central France. Captivated by the intricate repeat-pattern prints—ranging from florals to geometric designs—they adorned their home with signature decorative elements such as handmade lampshades, wallpaper-lined armoires, and luxurious textiles. Embracing the rhythm of life in France, they take readers on adventures that include local market shopping, antiquing, and even sheep’s cheese making. They share classic seasonal meals inspired by antique cookbooks, served on hand-dyed indigo tablecloths or nautical striped throws for seaside picnics. Creative insights from friends like American decoupage artist John Derian and French musician Clara Luciani add depth to their narrative.
