The art of entertaining

« Combining the day to day with something exceptional ». This frequent request is probably less paradoxical than it seems! In fact, most of the time, the so-called “reception” rooms, which are mainly living and dining rooms, are also living rooms where the intimate moments for family and friends occur, and receptions that involve other requirements… The alternative use of reception rooms goes hand in hand with new proposals that reply to a more relaxed lifestyle, such as designing an espresso kitchen, or a bar where a quick meal can be prepared. Entertaining however remains an art, even if it is constantly evolving in line with lifestyles and enriched by new proposals. Requirements are now more focused on comfort and generosity of spaces which have to be elegant and warm above all.

Comfort is crucial to the allure of a reception room and one could say it can be the key to the success of a reception area. Each piece of furniture designed by the Studio expresses the attention given to ergonomics which determine the choice of the height of a dining room table, bench or chair. An attention that focuses on the comfort of a chair when it is a question of sitting down for a few hours (an ordeal if one is simply badly seated). In the living room, sofas of different lengths and depths

and armchairs, should invite you to sit down, relax and chat. The art of living together applies not only to outdoor spaces – terraces and gardens, but also to yachts… In contrast with ostentation, the layouts accomplish a refinement that is perceived in the accuracy of the choices made. Attention is given to relevant details that goes beyond decoration. A lot of thought is given to the function of the property and what is destined for it, with a sensitive approach that has made Liaigre so successful.
