They strived to establish a distinctive style that blended timeless modernity with audacious elements, as articulated by Pierre Bénard.

The residency at St. Vincents diverged from traditional showroom norms, presenting Pierre Augustin Rose’s luxurious Parisian collection in a distinctive setting. Co-founder Geraldine Jackman highlighted the unique backdrop that enhanced the elegance of the displayed pieces.
