Maison Rêve is a historic Victorian home reimagined as a Parisian-bohemian salon for Austin’s modern era. The house unfolds as a sequence of atmospheric rooms, each conceived as a vignette — intimate, layered, and designed to be lived in.
The interiors are grounded in deep, romantic hues and natural materials: indigo, burgundy, and plum softened by mink, walnut, cognac, and warm earth tones. Velvet, wood, and aged metals create a sense of richness without excess, balancing drama with comfort and ease.
Inspired by the European salon tradition, Maison Rêve is designed first and foremost as a place for gathering. Rooms are arranged to encourage conversation, lingering, and connection — spaces that feel cinematic yet welcoming, expressive yet relaxed.
Subtle references to 19th-century art, myth, and history appear throughout the house, adding quiet depth and echoing the many lives and eras the home itself has witnessed.
Maison Rêve unfolds as a progression — threshold, discourse, revelry, dream, ritual — an immersive environment designed for hosting, photography, and the quiet pleasure of inhabiting beauty.
