A wide lavender field glows violet beneath a bright summer sky. Its calm, fragrant expanse suits bedrooms, living rooms and quiet bathrooms.

Row upon row, the blooming lavender bushes run towards the horizon and fill the field with deep violet touched by blue-grey shadows. Behind them, slender cypresses rise like dark green exclamation marks, followed by a pale strip of ripening grain, wooded hills and a soft mountain ridge. Above it all, white summer clouds drift across clear blue.

Above the sofa, at the dining table or at the foot of the bed, the scene settles in easily. With light wood, white walls and unfussy furniture it feels summery and fresh, while the saturated violet warms cool rooms and makes them look wider.

A Provençal summer that opens the view and slows the day down.
