At Home in the French Countryside: The Elegant and Bright House of a Creative Family Near Paris

Inside a Creative Couple's Art-Filled Parisian Home
Alice and Antoine (Maison Saman founders), a creative couple, a family of 4, who lived in Vietnam, share the story of their journey from discovering Japanese techniques in Vietnam to transforming an old family house next to Paris into both a living space and a hub for creativity and art. Six years ago, while working in IT and communication in Saigon and awaiting the birth of their child, they decided to start their own brand inspired by the Shou Sugi Ban technique. Upon returning to France, they renovated the old family house to blend vintage with modern designs, making it a space for work, client meetings, and art exhibitions. Discover how they have combined and curated their space and incorporated colour and art. They share their love for food, design, and art, texture and color, and highlight the importance of supporting other artists and curators, such as Christophe Charbonnel.

The amount of disposable income and financial resources in the world amazes me. I am happy for this couple. A lovely home.

That wall paint color is perfect ! So warm and calming - 👍🏼

[ciganyweaverandherperiwink]

The paint colour of those walls is SENSATIONAL. Whatever colour you put in front of it, by way of decorative objects, art, flowers, what have you, just POPS. It goes with everything. I wish more people would cotton on to this colour. Much trial and experimentation to get it exactly right as every house has different walls and different ways of taking in daylight. Wonderful to see this colour in a home tour like this, I really enjoyed it all.

The beauty and qualities of the home simply reflected the qualities Alice expressed: beauty, graciousness, humility, etc. The home is beautiful, Alice's qualities--palpable and outstanding.
