Olive Ateliers has officially unveiled 'Lieu De Vie,' its first full interior furnishings line, marking a milestone evolution for the beloved lifestyle brand. Rooted in French farmhouse living, the collection reflects the brand’s transition from curated discovery to intentional design, celebrating timeless rituals and lived-in elegance.
The 40-piece collection spans dining and living furniture, textiles, and décor, featuring standout debuts like the 'Galerie Hanging Shelf,' 'Maisonette Hutch,' 'Atelier Dining Table,' 'Farmhouse Dining Chair,' and accessories such as the 'Bordeaux Basket' and 'Maison Keyholder.' Each piece is handcrafted from natural woods with a patina finish and upholstered in Olive Ateliers’ exclusive heavyweight linen, including the romantic 'Cherie print' inspired by vintage French literary sleeves.
Co-founder Laura Sotelo emphasizes the balance between patina, character, and longevity. At the same time, Kendall Knox notes the line represents a deepening of the brand’s vision, built on years of sourcing and storytelling.
