Don’t be afraid to mix styles
It’s hard to pin down the French ‘je ne sais quoi’, but if we had to guess, we’d say it comes from the French’s ability to mix design styles effortlessly. It creates a cool ‘in-the-know’ look when done right (the trick is not to overdo it), and draws from Cubist design principles – a sophisticated way to mix and match. Think vintage decor meets Art Deco design. These leather and wood dining chairs have a vintage look that says French bistro. Pair them with a modern statement monochrome wall lamp and Instagram-worthy, France-inspired wall art for a true Paris apartment feel.

Start With The French
For an effortlessly chic, French-inspired home, Maison Flâneur brings together the finest artisans, each capturing the essence of French style through their exceptional craftsmanship.
For your table, Sabre’s luxurious staple cutlery ties together every dining experience, and Popolo’s sumptuous Italian-inspired ceramics add rich layers and colour to any interior. Rose Balimba’s bold and vibrant creations introduce a lively spirit into any room. Tomete’s organic linens, with their minimalist elegance, set a serene tone, while Table hand-crafted textiles offers a perfect touch of colour and playfulness.
To accessorise, Ini Ceramique's delicate, artistic pottery combines beauty with function, and Mattina Moderna's sleek, contemporary designs incorporate subtle European flair. With these distinguished makers, you can redesign your space to refelct the cobbled streets of Paris mixed with your personal style.

Add luxe touches
When it comes to design, the French aren’t afraid of a touch of luxe. Think grand design details like metallic accents, gilded edges, intricately detailed pieces or antiques – Baroque-inspired, but never overdone. A ‘less is more’ approach will make sure you achieve that Parisian effortlessness, as well combining these elegant details with pieces that have a little more edge. This white and gold cup and saucer set is perfect for your (black) coffee in the morning, especially when enjoyed by the light of this vintage-style lampshade.

Find Inspiration
To bring a touch of French chic into your home, draw inspiration from iconic places like Le Pigalle's unique design. The hotel’s decor is a beautiful blend of its vibrant neighbourhood and timeless style. To recreate this at home, start by incorporating vintage 50s furniture that exudes character—think elegant armchairs, sleek side tables, and retro lighting fixtures. Pair this with bold, contemporary artworks to inject personality and colour into your space. You can also play with a neoclassical architectural vibe, using classic touches like moldings or soft, neutral tones on the walls. Lastly, infuse a sense of place by integrating local or personal elements—such as unique textiles or vintage finds—that reflect the stories and energy of your own neighbourhood, much like how Le Pigalle celebrates the surrounding area.
Recreate the look at home by pairing a traditional rattan table bistro chair with the pink Ears Vase and some gold accents, like the Gold Kiss candle.
