Rene draws its inspiration from a distinguished Art Deco velvet pattern conceived by René Prou in 1929 for the Orient-Express, gracing the seats of its celebrated Pullman lounge cars. The design carries the lineage of this celebrated inter-war decorator and grandfather of Patrick Frey. Enlarged to commanding scale, the geometric pattern reveals its graphic potency with striking contemporaneity, rendered here in a sophisticated monochrome of grey-green that speaks to both heritage and modern sensibility.
