Art de Vivre presented a new collection of carpets Blanc de Blancs

The new Blanc de Blancs collection includes a variety of carpets: plain, mono-textured, low-pile and high-pile. The peculiarity of the collection is white color in the entire spectrum: from creamy to the shade of baked milk. According to Art de Vivre designers, white color most clearly illustrates texture and tactility.

Expensive natural materials such as wool, silk and cashmere were used to create the carpets.

For the photo project, the brand invited stylist Marina Bessonova and photographer Dmitry Zhuravlev. The shooting took place in a specially built pavilion. According to Marina, the inspiration was Japanese aesthetics in the works of Charlotte Perriand (French modernist, architect, designer, photographer, collage artist). For example, large white and beige carpets reminiscent of tatami, soothing colors and woods that create a sense of calm, can be found in the residence of the Japanese ambassador in Paris, designed by Perriand, as well as in the exhibition of the Louis Vuitton Foundation.

Thanks to clean architectural lines, laconic expressive objects, as well as a combination of white color and wooden textures, the authors of the shooting managed to convey the play of light and shadow, which emphasized the texture and plasticity of the carpets from the Blanc de Blancs collection.

About author

I pass by being that person liable to duty, but who cannot resist the flights of imagination. I have always loved the legends, the myths and the stories of the old and distant times with my whole being. In high school I fell in love with the history of art and I made it the object of my university studies. Once I graduated, I dusted off an old flame: that of children's literature. I rediscovered the beauty and importance of illustrated books and books, where, to a quality text, images are added that give strength and enrich what is narrated with meaning. It can be said that illustrators often make real works of art! It was then that I decided to follow this passion of mine both as a volunteer, entering the ranks of readers born to read, and in my work as a librarian. I am a greedy devoured of illustrated books (I have an absolute weakness for the stories that have bears or wolves as protagonists!), I love simple stories that know how to strike and surprise. I hate pigeon-holed books in a specific age group and readers in a certain category of readings. I think everyone is different and deserves to choose (and be chosen by the books) without constraints, in complete freedom! [email protected]
