In an exclusive interview with Smallable, Elodie and Julien shared insights into their creative journey.
A Creative Collaboration
For Elodie and Julien, Maisonjaune is more than a studio; it's an extension of their lives and shared enthusiasm. Their projects span across diverse landscapes, from designing restaurants like Verjus and collaborating with renowned spaces like The Proper Hotel in San Francisco to adding their artistic touch to fashion shoots for Jacquemus.
The Essence of Maisonjaune's Style
Defined by a fusion of inspirations gathered from worldwide travels, Maisonjaune's style echoes the essence of Italian, Scandinavian, Brazilian, and Swiss designs of the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Materials like marble, brass, rattan, elm, and pine form the cornerstone, while sunlight plays a crucial role, illuminating spaces adorned with soft, natural textiles.
Maisonjaune Studio's Wellsprings of Inspiration
Elodie and Julien find inspiration in the serene ambiance of Brancusi’s studio and the thought-provoking exhibitions at the Cité de l’Architecture. They also dive into the pages of Archiscopie de la cité, curated by Élodie’s sister, Mélanie Meunier, seeking artistic fuel for their creative endeavors. These spaces and sources become wellsprings of fresh perspectives, weaving a rich tapestry of experiences into Maisonjaune's ever-evolving narrative.
Timeless Narratives
At Maisonjaune Studio, vintage finds harmoniously dance with contemporary concepts, crafting spaces that breathe art, history, and the shared journey of Elodie and Julien. It's not just a design gallery; it's an invitation to immerse oneself in a narrative spun from the threads of diverse inspirations and passionate curation.
