For all those who could not visit in person the Echappée Verte, here is a brief presentation of the structure of the exhibition.

Ground Floor

Le Déjeuner sur l’Air

The “Dejeuner sur l’Air” is the first room you come across entering the left: a surreal picnic in the absence of gravity. The delicate fibers of Fil de Coco are woven into a table cloth that covers the light hanging boards of velvety elegance and country setting, starting point of the fantastic journey of the Echappée Verte.

Sensorial Portals

The sensory portals are in the hallway in front of the Dejeuner sur l’Air. They are ready to offer visitors the keys to the world of Fil de Coco to seduce them with their style, the nuances, the scents, the melodies. Just bring the eye to see on a small screen the video image of the corresponding color of Fil de Coco. Just breathe to smell the scent inspired by the name of the color, to touch with your hand to feel the textures of the fibers and give ear to vibrate to the sound of sweet music.

The pavilion of the fairy

Le Pavillon de la Fée is located down the hall. Here we find the composition Très Jouy in which revives the ancient tradition of Toile de Jouy, the French textile decoration for excellence since 1760, famous for his images of rural background bloomed.
At the center of the room a charming fairy invisible is reflected in her enchanted mirror and indicates the path to follow to visitors who can answer the question hidden in her casket of jewels.

The Enchanted Forest

Past the door to the right of the pavilion of the fairy, you enter the heart of the Enchanted Forest which hides mysteries that visitors will unveil to know their botanical. Owls, keepers of the keys of the NamelessTreasury, they’ll guess the answer the last riddle. The trunks of the trees are the six colors of the series Noname in its 5 sizes.
