From the time I was introduced to the French language and culture, I’ve had a natural affection for everything French or French-inspired. One of my absolute favorite French furniture designers is Roche Bobois. Beautiful and environmental conscious, their customizable furniture is divided into three collections: LES CONTEMPORAINS (vibrant, avant garde pieces), LES PROVINCIALES (furniture influenced by exotic destinations), and LES VOYAGES (french inspired furniture adapted to today’s lifestyle).



I could just get lost in the tones and textures of this serene bedroom. Leather headboard, woven furnishings, plush wool rug, and I’d be willing to bet the bedding is made from the softest merino wool.

Clearly, I am a chair fanatic. How beautiful is this silver painted Louis XVI armchair? I’m daydreaming of replicating this finish by utilizing a silver leafing technique. I spy burlap curtains. Do you? Get a closer look on their website.

Chillax: To loosen or reduce the level of stress by employing a more calm and less intense demeanor. What better place can you think of to kick back and unwind with food, wine, and your closest friends?
Warm weather combined with a swanky pool and an awesome view, a poolside bed could only be the icing on the cake. This may be as good as it gets! Wouldn’t you agree?
