Atelier Vime : Histoire, Lieux Et Formes

Born in Vallabrègues, Provence, in an eighteenthᵉ century mansion, Atelier Vime is part of the ancestral heritage of the art of wicker weaving in this village on the banks of the Rhône.

This book traces the history of basketry and its contemporary renaissance with Atelier Vime, and invites you to discover the poetic worlds of Benoît Rauzy and Anthony Watson's houses - Provence, Brittany, Paris, Normandy. The admirable palette of colours in the whitewashed walls - from Guimet blue to yellow ochre - provides a unique backdrop for the antique furniture, classic and modern art collections, and contemporary creations in natural materials that adorn their interiors.
