What could be more soothing and comforting than a collection of small flames at the centre of a beautiful table, or next to the bath, perhaps. Simply place several candles on a raised surface which you can then decorate further with pieces of greenery. All is possible here – variations in height, colour combinations, contrast, types of greenery. Cast an eye over nature’s possibilities, or use a particular inspiration as the basis of your decoration. Spectacular effect guaranteed!

Vertical simplicity

Long-stemmed flowers placed very simply in a pretty vase along vertical lines combines perfectly with the bathroom’s decor, and elegant chic is the result. Here, the beige wall becomes a backdrop against which we’ve superposed vivid red in the bouquet. For the companion pleasure of the senses, we’ve added an attractive plate filled with coloured, fragrant individual soaps, providing a very personal note to the otherwise sedate decor.
 

With continuity as the foundation

To ensure harmony in the décor of this table, we’ve emphasized continuity of colour. The soft blue, white, and pinkish hues of the generously filled bouquet are echoed in the colours of the table mats, napkins, and the glasses and dishware. A completely fresh and delicate arrangement that is sure to please your guests.

Eastern influence

A décor inspired by the Far East is perfect for this wood and glass table. To achieve this effect, we’ve concentrated on the purity of the lines, on the naturalness of the accessories, and a regularity in the design and chosen colours. Thus, a long bamboo table runner on which we’ve set five square candles decorated with natural, unbleached paper and raffia provides this dining area with its "Zen" look – both restful and inviting.

Creating new decorative ensembles

Very little is needed, sometimes, to complete a décor. A few accessories placed wisely in order to catch an interested eye can make all the difference. To set off this sumptuous living room table: three pretty rattan balls casually set next to a beautiful green plant in a brown flowerpot holder. This disarmingly simple arrangement discretely enhances the elegance of the leather furniture and harmonizes beautifully with the natural brown, sand, and white shades that figure so prominently in the room.

The freshness of white

The transparency of glass and the freshness of white lend this room a real sparkle. Just as the mouldings, caissons, and curtains in this room, these graceful white flowers breathe freshness and lightness into the decor, and the overall effect is one of elegance. Candles in honey and earthen shades held by beautiful glass candleholders, or simply placed on the shelf, enhance the intimate allure of this space. Asymmetry and differences in proportions and height give a rhythm to this décor that couldn’t be more elegant. Simply, and with good taste.
