In 1952 a doctor and his wife left their home in the south of France for a new life on the coast of Brittany. Surrounded by nature, they sought out the designer Jean Royère and gave him free rein to remodel and redecorate their new house. Royère started by covering the walls with raffia and redesigning the three fireplaces. His colour scheme was influenced by the natural surroundings of the property, but in reverse - a sky blue tone was used for the carpet and the ceilings were painted green like the fields. He then furnished the whole home with specific pieces of furniture and objects that he had designed, transforming the home into a work of art.
En 1952, un médecin et son épouse quittent le sud de la France pour s'installer dans une maison au bord de la mer en Bretagne. Située dans un écrin de verdure, la maison est repensée par Jean Royère auquel l'épouse donne carte blanche pour qu'il y apporte gaité et lumière. Il commence par reconstruire les trois cheminées de la maison et recouvre les murs de raffia naturel puis s'inspire des couleurs environnantes (plafonds verts prairie et moquette bleue ciel) pour l'ensemble de la maison et du mobilier qu'il conçoit spécialement. Restée dans la maison depuis leur origine, les meubles et objets présentés des lots 68 à 73 sont un rare témoignage resté encore intouché/intact de l'oeuvre de Jean Royère.
