Bien Vu at HABILE: The 100% Eco-Creators Pop-up

Looking for Christmas gifts that are beautiful, well-made and virtuous for the obsessed with good things? You've come to the right place. Bien Vu is coming to Habile for the holidays, for a market like no other. From 16 November to 24 December, pop your head in on rue de Lancry and fill up your super stocking.

What's on offer? Knives made in France and upcycled table linen, tempting prints and very fresh books. Plus lighting that gives tableware a second life (yes, really), ceramics, clothes built to last… A well-curated selection to delight your loved ones without an eco-anxiety crisis.

A quick introduction to the creators:

Orma (lamp and pendant light)
What? 70s tableware (yes, the famousPyrex® non recyclable)transformed into absolutely stunning light fixtures.

For who? Gran, obviously. A chance to remind her of the salad bowl that saw kilos of chocolate mousse pass through it (and to finally get her to understand the concept of upcycling).

Lola Mayeras (ceramics)
What? Quirky vases shaped like household products and Mapa gloves.

For who? Your brother-in-law, because men like flowers too (and he's the champion of sharing household chores).

Atelier Marron
What? Home linen (re)created from vintage fabrics and then screen-printed. If you're not familiar with upcycling, ask gran — she'll explain!

For who? Your cousin who's all about zero waste, shares anti-Total petitions in the family WhatsApp and reposts every Extinction Rebellion update. You go girl.

Book "Fermenter presque tout avec presque rien"

What? A book picked from our lovely selection of editions: here, super easy recipes to get started with sauerkraut, kimchi and other probiotic-packed delights.

Who for? Your BF who still talks about their lockdown sourdough starter with a tremor in their voice and stars in their eyes. After bread, jars!

Cheese poster
What? A tour de France of cheeses to hang in your living room, found among various top-notch illustrations.

Who for? Your sister who just moved into her new flat (and who prefers to ignore her lactose intolerance out of love for Saint-Nectaire).

But who and what is Bien Vu?

"The agency and media outlet Bien Vu comes to the restaurant / boutique Habile." Haven't been following? Let us (re)introduce everyone.

Bien Vu is both an agency and a media outlet.

The media outlet shines a light on the crème de la crème of eco-creation through portraits and curated selections on Instagram. Food, décor, fashion, art: all of it filtered through the lens of upcycling and local sourcing — to catch the eye, not harm the planet.

And the agency supports businesses from creation to production to communicate in a greener way. Without greenwashing.

Can't wait to welcome you from 16 November for this colourful collab!
