the power of color in interior design.
Color has an impact on our subconscious, and each nuance is intimately linked to a sensation.
We each have our own perception of color, taking into account our personality and desires.
Each hue brings a different vibration and plays with our emotions. It can therefore influence our well-being, our balance…
Before choosing a color for decorating, we must also take into account the exposure of the room in question, its luminosity, the use to which it will be put, the desired intension…
To illustrate my point, here are a few examples of our work:
– a beautiful terracotta to warm up and give rhythm to a large space,
– a soothing verdigris in a master bedroom,
– an anthracite grey to delimit and integrate a kitchen moved into the living room, overturning the classic codes of this technical room,
– a flamboyant raspberry to highlight and warm up a northern landing.
– peacock green for this guest bedroom,
– Sarah Lavoine” blue to give character and a contemporary air to this masonry kitchen.

Masonry furniture – all styles and benefits
Our furniture and masonry fixtures are designed and created to order.
This means they can be adapted to any location, any taste, any budget, any technical constraints…
In addition to their economic advantages, they “marry” with all types of materials: wood, metal, stone, canework, etc.
The most widely used material today is aerated concrete, which is easy to handle and relatively inexpensive.
Examples of furniture made by our agency: kitchens, bathrooms, inserts, benches, etc..

A mix of materials, shapes, sizes and shades that work together: a large papier-mâché hanging light in dark grey and gold above the island in the brick-built kitchen, a “cluster” of 5 hanging lights in natural fibres above the entrance to take up the space of the beautiful ceiling height of over six metres, a Georges hanging light above the dining table whose terracotta echoes two sections of wall in the same shade in the nearby kitchen…

GEOBIOLOGY – Radiation from springs and groundwater
Part 2
Groundwater induces electrical currents at the surface of the ground, causes a change in the earth’s magnetic field and an increase in natural gamma radiation (greater influence at the surface than at depth).
Depth and flow rate of a water circulation determine the intensity of the radiation and its harmfulness.
A very concrete example: a bed located at the level of a fault = natural radiation more penetrating than X-rays.

Part 1
Install your house in the right place and avoid bad waves.
An ancestral practice of decisive importance because the presence of certain waves inherent to the geological subsoil can be harmful to the well-being of its inhabitants.
He detects the passage of water currents and faults on a plot of land before the construction of the habitat, and searches for the intensity of the water’s radiation.
The geobiologist detects the natural radiation of water with the help of dowsing rods and the radiation of electromagnetic pollution with measuring devices.
He also carries out other telluric detections such as the Hartmann, Curry and Wissmann geomagnetic networks, and carries out the survey of electromagnetic pollution produced by wireless phones, computers, power lines…

The essential principles of FENG SHUI.
Positioning of your house on your ground:
The back of this one must be leaned against a hill or the ground with the back of the house must be higher than in front of what constitutes a good support, a protection against the elements or all kinds of misfortunes.
This can be corrected by planting, for example, large trees behind the house which will symbolically “raise the energy”, stimulating the protective energy.
In addition, the level of the land in front of the house or building should not be higher than that of the house. It is necessary to create a clear space in front of the house.
Ideally, the land to the left and right should be higher as if it were “enveloping” the house.

The origin of feng shui.
Feng shui is a science that dates back to China over 3,500 years ago.
Everything on earth is categorized into 5 main elements which are fire, metal, earth, wood and water having a negative or positive implication (the “Chi”).
Each of these elements can have yin or yang properties.
Feng shui is also a technique to correct the harmony of the environment and gives everyone the possibility to improve their own living and working space.)
