"Quand je considère ma vie, je suis épouvanté de la trouver informe. L’existence des héros, celle qu’on nous raconte, est simple ; elle va droit au but comme une flèche. Et la plupart des hommes aiment à résumer leur vie dans une formule, parfois dans une vanterie ou dans une plainte, presque toujours dans une récrimination ; leur mémoire leur fabrique complaisamment une existence explicable et claire. Ma vie a des contours moins fermes. Comme il arrive souvent, c’est ce que je n’ai pas été, peut-être, qui la définit avec le plus de justesse : bon soldat, mais point grand homme de guerre, amateur d’art, mais point cet artiste que Néron crut être à sa mort, capable de crimes, mais point chargé de crimes". 

"Mémoires d'Hadrien" by Marguerite Yourcenar, 1951.

01. Bois d’Ascèse by Naomi Goodsir
"A piece of ancient wood, as hard and impenetrable as stone. Having risen from the depths of the sea, a storm cast it ashore, where it was scorched by the relentless sun, until once again it was buried by sand and soil. Finally, unearthed by convulsion and tremor, entrusted now to the fire, it releases sounds and memories carried across thousands of years, alighting in a trace of white smoke veering heavenwards".

"A spiritual incense and wood fragrance from Australian designer Naomi Goodsir, who first made a name for herself with fantastical couture head pieces".

"Parlez avec le nez", by Denyse Beaulieu. 

Les artistes: "ainsi la chapelière australienne Naomi Goodsir, fille spirituelle de Mad Max et d'Elsa Schiaparelli qui aligne, à côté de ses bibis à antennes, collerettes brodées d'os et crinolines bordées de coco. Une collection de senteurs gothiques et délicates. Son Iris Cendré, composé par Julien Rasquinet, arrache à l'ingrédient sa perruque poudrée pour rappeler qu'à l'origine, l'iris est une racine, et l'enfouir sous des cendres d'encens fines comme un duvet de corbeau".

PERFECT  IMPERFECT, the beauty of accident, age & patina

An interior design book that embodies a philosophy of thoughtfulness & creativity in living.

Text by Karen McCartney, Photography Sharyn Cairns / Styling Glen Proebstel

Perfect Imperfect takes as its founding principle the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, advocating the beauty to be found in imperfection, impermanence and the authentic. Importantly, this is done without losing sight of the benefits of living in the 21st century, where designers are merging digital technology with the handmade to produce items that combine the best of both worlds.
