MAISON DUPIN is rightfully proud of its production. In a small factory, which is located in Geneva, the author's furniture is made, the curtains are sewn, the carpets are woven, and the antiques are restored. Here on the second floor there is a show-room of the company and a design bureau. The special pride of the Luty brothers is a special repository of wood. Without exaggeration, we can say that almost all the most famous species from around the world are collected here: it is wenge, and all types of oak, cherry, walnut, pear, cedar, pine, Karelian birch, makore, paduk, bubing ... Studying each of them, Pascal Luty has developed his own technology of "glowing" furniture. “Not all types of wood are suitable for this,” Pascal tells. “For the most part, only light ones. You just need to find a pattern and color of the veneer, so that it shines by itself. And it is necessary to put the LEDs inside, as the tree comes to life. Almost in every interior we use this know-how. Such furniture looks very beautiful and spectacular in both classical and modern spaces. And since the drawing of a tree is always different, this is also a special talent of our specialists — to combine several canvases so that the pattern continues in many different variations and resembles a picture. ”
