An invitation to breathe in the atmosphere of an era dedicated to the art of living, this series of CHR furnishings takes up the emblematic lines and models of the Art Nouveau style that made the reputation of French cafés and bistros. A timeless style, synonymous with quality and elegance.
Marcel Proust's search for lost time, that little madeleine, that touch of nostalgia characterizes the spirit of this collection. Curves and arabesques, the return of color, floral and plant motifs, nature as a source of inspiration, the sensuality of slender women with long, flowing hair are the hallmarks of this artistic movement.
Belle époque" aesthetics
Richard Diffusion offers chairs and tables in wood or metal, with an emphasis on authenticity and robust materials. These furnishings are designed to offer modern comfort while retaining a retro-chic look, as in the case of the bentwood seats, which subtly recall this "Belle époque" aesthetic. The meticulous choice of materials is not limited to the seats. Table tops are adorned with aluminum or brass banding, adding a touch of refinement and character to the ensemble. In addition, table legs often adopt a cast steel look, a true tribute to the craftsmanship and elegance of Art Nouveau.
Combining tradition and modernity
This taste for work well done, for a certain tradition of excellence, does not prevent Richard Diffusion from being attentive to the contemporary needs of professionals and at the cutting edge of innovation. The range also uses lighter, more resistant materials. The result is furniture that is not only aesthetically pleasing and attractive, but practical and durable, meeting the demands of bars, hotels and restaurants. The retro-chic ambience of Parisian bistros would not be complete without similar furnishings on the terrace. That's why woven rattan chairs, with their colorful patterns and elegant lines, complete this collection.
"Art for all, and art in everything" is the philosophy of the Art Nouveau movement, a forerunner in many fields. With its "Bistro-Rétro" collection, Richard Diffusion pays modest tribute to this movement, while adapting to the contemporary demands of the hotel and restaurant trades.
