I have a soft spot for all things woven so I’m hard-pressed not to succumb to a purchase when I see such an item. On a recent holiday with my sister in Mallorca, I was actually disciplined enough to hold out but she couldn’t resist and into her luggage went a beautiful ra∞a basket. Weaves are also a great way to add natural texture and warmth to decorating schemes. For imaginative ideas on how to introduce them into your own home, our decorating feature on page 57 is guaranteed to provide a wealth of inspiration. In this issue, we are focusing our attention across the Channel to celebrate the talented designers, destinations and glorious gardens of France. I was particularly struck by the enchanting Île de Ré home of interior…

Annick, can you tell us a bit about your background? I studied at the Beaux-Arts in my hometown of Marseille then, in 1985, I set up my own atelier, designing and making children’s clothes. I called the company Honoré, as I thought it was a lovely name for a child. I later added a collection for women, but I’ve always had a passion for interiors so a few years on I began to branch out into homewares, starting with a range of linens. How did this develop? I have five grown-up children and, in 2005, my daughter Stephanie moved to Morocco. While visiting her I met a wealth of artisans, and I began having pieces made to my designs – simple lights, mirrors and furniture. I harnessed the skills of…

French interior designer Christian Liaigre is famed for his refined and luxurious yet pared-back schemes and for his elegant, handcrafted furniture. His work graces the houses of design luminaries, including Karl Lagerfeld and Kenzo Takada, as well as landmark hotels such as The Mercer in New York and Hôtel Costes in Paris. At his country home on the Île de Ré, a picturesque island off the west coast of France, Christian presents a more earthy sensibility inspired by its rustic 18th-century architecture, the quiet village atmosphere and the raw beauty of the surrounding landscape. “This was a simple home for a fisherman and that is reflected in the decoration.” What originally brought you to Île de Ré? It is a place I visited a long time ago, during childhood holidays.…

When mother and daughter duo Marjorie Taylor and Kendall Smith Franchini set up The Cook’s Atelier in Beaune, an historic walled town in the heart of Burgundy, it was the realisation of a long-held dream. Originally from Arizona, the pair combined their love of food, wine and all things French to create their culinary boutique and French cooking school with the aim of teaching classic techniques in an approachable and convivial way. Understanding the importance of using quality ingredients, they have nurtured close relationships with local farmers and artisan food producers, and enjoy the weekly ritual of visiting the local market to seek out fresh fare. We join them here as they celebrate the long days of summer with a simple yet delicious alfresco supper in a Burgundy vineyard. The…

Visiting Stéphane Chassine’s garden on the southern banks of the River Loire is, in modern parlance, an immersive experience. Follow the grassy paths that wind through the Rose Cloister, walk beneath the pergolas, arbours and tunnels that lead through the garden, sit on the rustic benches and, throughout, and you will be surrounded by more than 500 varieties of rose. They festoon the trees, cascade from walls and enshroud their supports, taking on a near-wild appearance and enveloping you with their delicious scent. In 1999, when Stéphane and his wife, Aline, bought their farmhouse, just a field away from the south bank of the river at Meung-sur-Loire, the buildings were derelict and there was no garden, just a flat, six-hectare field with a few mature walnut and acacia trees. Restoring…

What type of property is this? It’s a single-fronted townhouse in Chelsea. We built a two-storey closet wing at the rear, taking two bedrooms to four, and then added a glass extension on the ground floor to open up the previously tiny kitchen. How did you get involved? I’ve known the clients for years. They work in property but this is their family home, shared with their two teenagers and two dogs. Although they don’t renovate with the intention of selling, they usually can’t help seeking out the next challenge. What influenced the kitchen’s layout? The clients cook a lot, so they requested the biggest appliances the space would allow. I follow the ‘working triangle’ principle – to chop, wash and cook without excessive travel. We toyed with an island…

Can you describe the project? This home in Atlanta, Georgia, is in a relatively urban setting, but it sits back from the road against a wooded hillside, giving it a pastoral feel and privacy on all sides. The rooms were originally designed with dark panelled walls and floor finishes, but the new owners wanted a much lighter palette. To this end, the flooring here was replaced with limed oak and the panelling painted to give the whole interior a facelift. What was the main influence for the scheme? The room is filled with light all day long, so the design was all about making the most of this, with a luminous and open feel. The ceiling was given at least eight coats of high-gloss paint in a misty blue-green shade,…

What did the garden look like when you bought the land? This area was a granite quarry for many years and it was planted with conifers after the Second World War so, when Thierry moved here in the 1980s, the property was covered with spruce trees. He cleared these to make a small garden around a wooden shack, which later became his home. When we moved in together in the 1990s, we gradually bought more parcels of land, removing more than 3,000 trees in all, and bringing in lorry-loads of topsoil. What inspired your design for the garden? The Vosges mountains and the wild flowers of the region were huge influences. Thierry is the architect of the garden; he uses his artistic eye to create an atmosphere, and I add…

• When it comes to paintings, prints or photographs, I like to hang a lot on a wall. A good approach is to zone the pictures. Floor-to-ceiling black-and-white prints can look very smart in a corridor, for example. Groups of family photographs hung together in a smaller room work well, too, and is preferable to them being scattered on surfaces. I don’t like the idea of close-hanging modern paintings, though – you don’t want a room to end up looking like the railings of Hyde Park on a Sunday. • Before hanging, arrange the pictures on the floor. You don’t need to use a tape measure for precise spacing, as the tension will always be a bit different when they are hanging from a wire. A lot of the look…

We just couldn’t resist this Sixties-inspired Agave furniture range, which looks perfectly at home on the terrace of Sorrento’s modernist Parco dei Principi hotel.

How would you describe your Instagram account? The photographs I take are a record of my daily life, my walks in Paris and family holidays in the French countryside. I also love to bake and share the results.

THIS MONTH, we visit a renovated stone barn in the Luberon (page 76) and admire a supremely elegant Venetian palazzo apartment (page 84). A 17th-century château is filled with modernist touches (page 90) and a stylish new-build provides a sense of timeless tranquillity in Provence (page 100). Outside, we discover the top 20 gardens to visit in France (page 112), bask in a naturalistic paradise on the Côte d’Azur (page 118), lose ourselves among romantic roses (page 124) and find out how to create a Mediterranean-style garden (page 129).…

With great property comes great responsibility. ‘It’s true; if you think too much about this kind of house, you would never buy it,’ muses interior designer Pierre Yovanovitch. ‘Although I’m very glad I did.’ The property in question is an estate formed of a rather splendid 17th-century château in Provence, a farmhouse (a 19th-century addition) and 700 acres of woodland and farmland. Pierre, who is based in Paris, was not actually looking for another home when he spotted the château in a property magazine. His interest, however, was piqued and he succumbed. Having bought it, he spent the next few years painstakingly reconstructing the breathtaking yet crumbling estate to his own eclectic vision. RESTORATION PIECE The vision, as Pierre saw it, was to breathe new life into the property and…

MARK OF DISTINCTION Hidden behind the 17th-century house is the most unexpected and magnificent garden, which has been tended by owners Didier Wirth and his wife, Barbara, since 1992. They have been restoring its architectural elements, which include four spectacular formal terraces that climb outwards and upwards to meet the sky through the wonderful ironwork gate at the top. Richly ornamented with decorative statues, and featuring immaculately clipped hornbeam hedges and a breathtaking parterre of tightly scrolled box, this garden is a rare treat indeed. CHÂTEAU DE BRÉCY , 14480 Saint-Gabriel-Brécy, lesjardinsdebrecy@gmail.com. SENSE OF ADVENTURE If a garden can be well curated, this is it. Full of rare, mature plants and antique garden furniture and ornaments (which you can buy, if you fall in love with them), it is…

STEPS AND SLOPES Using the hillsides of southern France as your template, transform a dry, sloping garden with colour and texture. Here, the eye-catching walkway leading up to the deck is made using stepping stones in reclaimed oak, set on pillars so they appear to be floating. Angle each step slightly so that rain will drain away, preventing the surface from becoming slippery. Dark green pencil-shaped cypress trees work as striking exclamation marks in a planting scheme made up of sparkling silver-leaved plants that will thrive on dry slopes, such as eryngium (sea holly) and Anthemis punctata (Sicilian chamomile). EASY-CARE PLANTING Decorate a south-facing terrace with pretty flowering plants that will bask happily in the heat without the need for constant watering, leaving you free to sit back and relax.…

Can you describe the history of this building? This stunning property, on the Spanish Costa Brava, started life as two 16th-century signal towers built to protect the nearby Castle of Calonge from pirate invasions. The main residence between the two towers was added in the 17th century and, within sight of the beach, it is now a weekend escape for my clients who have three children. How did you alter the layout? The building is of historic importance so we couldn’t touch the towers, but we removed internal walls and a second staircase to turn the first floor into an open-plan bedroom, bathroom and dressing space. The remaining staircase comes up into the main bedroom and is shielded from view by a panelled wall that creates a natural division between…

WHICH MATTING IS BEST FOR STAIRS? We are moving to an old house and I’d like to fit matting on the stairs to link with the wooden floors in the hall and on the landing. Which type is best and what else should we know about wear and care? PW, Ripon, North Yorkshire. Among natural mattings, sisal is regarded as best for stairs because it’s hardwearing and its texture makes it less slippery than seagrass, for instance. There are also now more colours, patterns and weave structures in sisal, says Emma Hopkins at Crucial Trading, 01562 743747, crucial-trading.com. A classic choice would be Small Bouclé, from £50sq m, in natural colours and mixed tones, or Herringbone in six colourways, £67sq m, with Grand Herringbone (above), a two-colour weave, £92sq m,…

Set back from the bustling streets of Paris’ lively 2nd arrondissement, you’ll find the Hotel des Grands Boulevards in an impressive French Revolution era building. Inside, designer Dorothée Meilichzon has struck a fine balance between the pomp of the grand siècle, with red marble and decorative canopy beds, and a more pastoral aesthetic of lime-washed walls, worn linens and rustic furniture, all inspired by Marie Antoinette’s farm. With further highlights including its Franco-Italian cuisine and a hidden courtyard, this is a great base from which to explore Parisian life.

Combining her passions for sustainability and originality, designer Ariane Prin launched her first homewares collection, Rust, in 2015. Made entirely by hand using waste metal particles, each piece is unique in colour, texture and shape. “My collection came about thanks to a bag of key dust that a locksmith gave me one day. I love how a material that is useless to one person can be of much greater value to someone else, and the starting point of a new project; I think we need to make more of these design connections. All of the pieces in the Rust collection are inspired by a desire to create new forms and utility out of commonly discarded waste materials. I made my first samples for Rust five years ago. During study and…

Time-worn wood furniture and handcrafted vessels make charming partners for the open-weave pendant light, designed to cast playful shadows to atmospheric effect. A large round woven rug (right) helps to define the dining area of this open-plan living space, while the distinctive oversized lampshade, reminiscent of a straw sun hat, introduces a note of whimsy to the scheme. A trolley is ideal for summer entertaining and this rattan weave design (above) has a smart rustic look. Washed linens and the eye-catching open design of the rattan sofa bring a relaxing mood to this inviting space, which is enhanced by unlined curtains that gently filter the sunlight. Taking inspiration from the room’s palette of raspberry and citron, our moodboard (opposite) offers further ideas for creating a fresh, stylish look. Hints of…

Walking through the gates that lead to Carine Reckinger’s property on the Côte d’Azur, the sight that greets you is enough to make you feel as if you have taken a step back in time. Here, hidden from view and set against a backdrop of rugged mountains, Carine has, as she describes it, ‘tried to recreate Provence as it was seventy or a hundred years ago’. Accordingly, everything is pared back, there is no grand drive, just a gravel track, and there are no lawns, only meadows that extend along the ridge to the woodland. For the past 40 years, Carine has worked with the topography and existing vegetation of her land. ‘Any ideas of planting delphiniums and other common garden flowers were quickly abandoned in favour of the robust…

Which Mediterranean plants would you recommend for a dry garden in Britain? Cistus (rock rose) is one of my favourites. These evergreens will grow happily in a sunny, sheltered spot and produce large, delicate flowers in shades of pink and white. I also use phlomis, which has silvery leaves and unusual hooded flowers followed by architectural seedheads, and teucrium, a drought-tolerant genus that includes plants with a range of flower colours. How would you combine the plants in a border? Choose an evergreen shrub, such as Pistacia lentiscus (mastic tree), and buy enough plants to cover about half of the total area. Space them out evenly on the bed and add a combination of cistus, phlomis and teucrium between. Fill the remaining gaps with a grass, such as Carex remota.…

Can you describe the project? This is the main bedroom in a late-19th-century building that lies at the heart of Chelsea in London. The building is rather quirky: it was once a dog kennels and then a publishing house and, for 15 years, it was the offices for our interior design company Taylor Howes along with our diffusion branch th2Designs. When the company outgrew the space, we decided to transform it into a luxurious home to showcase the th2Studio collection, our online range of furniture and accessories. What was the inspiration for this scheme? Outside the room’s French doors is a beautiful tree, which prompted us to pick up on the idea of greenery in a city setting. We chose bedside tables in a forest green lacquer and introduced cushions…
