An exhibition of French artisans in New York City

In the heart of Manhattan, 344 Bowery represents the excellence of French craftsmanship. This incredible showroom is a unique place of collaboration between design and French savoir-faire. This New York address is in fact the residence of the Par Excellence New York collective.

The organization brings together a collective of 11 talented craftsmen of the French art of living: Atelier de Ricou, Ateliers Jouffre, Ateliers Lison de Caune, Ateliers Saint-Jacques, Auberlet & Laurent, HENRI, Maison Meljac, Manufacture de Tapis de Bourgogne, Ozone Light, Souchet and Delisle.

The best of French know-how in Manhattan

Par Excellence New York created a unique design setting highlighting their French craftsmen. This presentation is based on their exceptional know-how in each of their materials and expertise:  wood, metal (such as bronze), marble and straw marquetry. In addition, there is decorative painting and plaster decorations. The works of master upholsterers are also present in the showroom. Rugs, lighting fixtures and high end electrical equipment are also part of the savoir-faire represented in the showroom. Today, arts and crafts are also modern, as for example, HENRI’s cutting edge technology that is described as the “art of the invisible”. For each skill, art lovers will easily identify the craftsmen, such as the straw marquetry of Lison de Caunes. These 11 French houses are working to support the most ambitious projects of architects.  All of which guarantees Signatures Singulières Magazine support for Par Excellence New York, the ambassador of French know-how.

From the White House to 344 Bowery

Thomas Pheasant is a renowned American interior designer. He designed the White House Guest House with his chic and refined style. A lover of French savoir-faire, he responded enthusiastically to Par Excellence New York’s invitation to design their showroom. The goal? To design the scenography of 344 Bowery to promote French know-how. For two years, he collaborated with the 11 artisans in the collective around a common guideline. They all put their respective savoir-faire at the service of the designer’s ideas. In the end, this exceptional space offers a softness reinforced by the omnipresent curves in homage to the arched windows and columns of the building’s classical architecture. Ateliers Saint-Jacques coordinated the work of the various craftsmen for Thomas Pheasant. The entire apartment at 344 Bowery reflects the excellence of French craftsmanship. It’s shown by the elegant comfort, highlighted by curvilinear seating by Ateliers Jouffre and Souchet.
