Collection Berlingot
Stripes, a timeless pattern.
The devil's motif, the emblem of sailors, but also a symbol of freedom and humor, there are stripes and there are stripes, as highlighted in Michel Pastoureau's beautiful book: Stripes. A cultural history published by Seuil .
Le Presse Papier through the Berlingot Collection, invokes this protean motif, evocative of the world of Jean-Paul Gauthier and his famous sailor shirts, a marker of abstract expressionism in Barnett Newman, a representative of Colour Field Painting, the signature of Daniel Buren, while being a timeless motif of decoration that will find its place both in a characterful home or a castle and in a child's room, thanks to its multiple variations.
Modern, chic, and timeless, stripes take on a classic English feel, invite a stroll along the Deauville boardwalk, or celebrate the beach huts of Saint-Nazaire in Monsieur Hulot's Holiday. Thus, a whole imaginary world emerges, evoking simple elegance and a bygone era of holiday resorts, all while remaining firmly contemporary.
