Off the Atlantic coast of France, Jean-Louis Deniot brings mainland flair and charm to his family's dreamy holiday refuge.

Ile De Reve

In the living room of siblings Jean-Louis and Virginie Deniot's 1940s vacation home on Île de Ré, France, the armchairs are vintage, the cocktail table is from the 1950s, and the ottoman is custom.

The custom sofa and shades in the office are of a Josef Frank fabric. Side table by Audoux Minet; midcentury desk by Peter Lovig Nielsen; photograph by Slim Aarons. For details, see Resources.

In the dining area, a custom banquette in a Josef Frank fabric and vintage bamboo chairs surround a custom dining table. Sconces by Audoux Minet; wallpaper, Au Fil des Couleurs; artworks by Frederic de Luca.

Located off the west coast of France, Île de Ré is one of Europe's most beautiful seaside destinations. Known for its picturesque villages and 60 miles of sandy coastline, for years it has attracted a well-heeled crowd including celebrities like Vanessa Paradis, as well as the late designer Christian Liaigre. Other fans in the design world include decorator Jean-Louis Deniot and his sister, Virginie, who has managed his eponymous firm in Paris for the past two decades.
