Our upcoming book ‘Defining the French art de vivre: 10 structuring notions’ explores this unique way of life, recognised around the world but never truly defined.
It is talked about everywhere, in interior design, at the dinner table, in everyday life… but no book had yet analysed it in depth or linked it to our era.
That’s what we wanted to do: offer a clear framework for understanding it, in 10 essential notions, illustrated with examples and quotes, and enriched with 11 interviews with major actors in the French art de vivre.
A book to understand, decode and, above all, embrace this subtle art that combines elegance, simplicity and freedom.
The book will be released on 13 October in French and English, and is already available for pre-order on the blog, on the EDITION section.
