AUGOUSTI

Ria is Filipina and Yiouri is Cypriot, one studied design and the other architecture. They met in London in the 1980s where they both worked for the designer John Stefanidis. Few years later they decided to achieve (to fulfil) their dream by creating their first collection of furniture and by showing it in Paris. Success was instantaneous : the Crillon placed an order for the apartments of this luxury hotel, Neiman Marcus and Barney’s show them in New York City. They settled in the Rue du Bac and since then never stopped creating furniture very inspired by Art Deco for which they have no limits concerning the choice of materials that they use, like at that time : rare woods, crocodile, python, cobra or ostrich skin, but also horn or mothers-of-pearls.

THE CONRAN SHOP

 After Habitat, Sir Terence Conran created the Conran Shop, his own line of shops, in 1973 in London, in which he wants to show both great design classics and the young designers’ creations. In Paris, he settled in the former warehouses of the Bon Marché designed by Gustave Eiffel. The Conran Shop is a successful alternative between the mass consumption design like Ikea or Habitat and the design in unique pieces or in numbered series presented in galleries.

ROSEBUD

The three associates of Rosebud met when they were working at Christian Tortu, so we can trust their creativity and their knowledge. The shop window is already a landscape by itself, but as we go in we discover a very beautiful choice of seasonal flowers and the creations by Laurence Brabant or by Guaxs for vases.
