"Like so many of us, Anthony Watson and Benoît Rauzy of Atelier Vime are finding reassurance and inspiration right now in nature. The couple make and sell some of France's loveliest rattan furniture, new and vintage: see Rattan Revival. They're currently at work on their next collection while "in containment in our farmhouse on the west coast of France." Via Instagram, Julie and I fell in love with Anthony's latest household improvement: a pine bough door surround for their already extraordinary-looking home office."
""I saved the curving branches-I love their lines," says Anthony. "I put them on the floor and made several testings to find the most harmonious arrangement. Then I attached them around the door with nails and cords." Winding nature motifs continue in the room on the kilim and the antique Moroccan suzani. Above: Anthony finished the frame with additional clusters of pine cones tied with twine. The results: rakishly chic, no?"
Anthony Watson and Benoît Rauzy of Atelier Vime worked from their farmhouse on the west coast of France and turned garden debris into a decorative door surround. They saved curving dead branches from a beloved 100-year-old pine tree and arranged them on the floor until finding a harmonious composition. The branches were attached around the door with nails and cords, then finished with clusters of pine cones tied with twine. The room features winding nature motifs on a kilim and an antique Moroccan suzani. A DIY wall curtain from old cotton was painted strong yellow and draped with small nails, inspired by French Empire fabric wall coverings adapted to a humble country house.
