Red is the ground of all passions. A concentrate of vitality that energizes our interiors and takes us back to our origins. Its vermilion shades flirt warmly with orange. Browned, they summon the earth.

Deep and mystical, purple soothes the turbulence of the mind. But being passionate about this chromatic field is, above all, opening your heart.

We are all marked by founding memories, those key moments that look like starting blocks that give impetus to our lives. One of mine is the meeting with the Dalai Lama in 1991 in Dharamsala.

"He was wisely draped in his carmine and turmeric red kesa. I was 18 years old. A great moment of spiritual joy as I accompanied my father who at the time was the director of Vogue magazine. Warm and deep, slightly pink, the Piment shade is a nod to this intense reminiscence, soft as velvet."

Full of mystery and an almost ecclesiastical opulence, this purplish purple subtly marks the transition between the chromatic field of red and that of blue. Its warm and intoxicating notes, close to burgundy, darken under the evening lights to reveal the splendor of their dark side.

Aubergine is the muted shade par excellence, which calls for daydreaming and gives an irresistible desire to cocoon!

Pinnace

Evocative of the seascapes and traditions of the Gironde coast, Pinasse is a warm and authentic shade, combining the ocher of weathered wood with the brown of bark salted by the wind.

Inspired by the flat-bottomed boats that crisscross the Arcachon basin, it tells of the tides, the golden sand and the amber reflections of the setting sun on the oak sculpted by time. A tribute to the know-how of yesteryear and the natural elegance of the Atlantic shores.
