This year's introduction is a nod to the theme of Voyage. Anthony Guerrée's TRANSATLANTIQUE collection for Atelier de Troupe refers to the French Ocean Liners of the early 20th century and the golden age of the Streamline Moderne movement; popularized by the Transatlantic company that linked France to New York. Every interior was thoughtfully curated in the style of the French Decorative Arts, laying the groundwork for Art Deco Design.
Each piece of furniture in this collection is a study in Art Deco Design and the Streamline Moderne style of the most famous ship of the fleet, the SS Normandie, with its clean and radical designs and luxurious finishes.
The ALEXANDRE armchair and LAFAYETTE tables, named for two other liners of the fleet, and the ATLANTIQUE wood screen, are symbols of the tenuous artistic exchange maintained with Guerrée's French studio and the US-based, Atelier de Troupe.
Following the success of the NOMADE rug, the AMERIQUE and EUGENIE rugs produced by cc-tapis in Milan and Anthony Guerrée pay homage to shipbuilding and the important role of geometry and the golden ratio in their patterns as in all creation in general.
An ode to movement and ocean travel.
