Under the motto ‘From personalities for personalities’, the bathroom and kitchen fittings manufacturer from Germany’s Black Forest recently asked several renowned designers, including Hadi Teherani and Tristan Auer, to create spaces for conscious body perception and care. In the case of Poniatowski, founder of Maison Sarah Lavoine, she did not leave the location of her retreat, which is entirely dedicated to meditation, to chance: ‘I have a deep connection with the southwest of France,’ says the designer. ‘The region is so authentic, there is nature everywhere. For me, it’s the most relaxing place in the world. That’s where the inspiration comes from.’
