Pour d\u00e9couvrir cette femme qui a marqu\u00e9 le design nous allons cette fois nous transporter en Angleterre \u00e0 la fin du 19i\u00e8me si\u00e8cle. N\u00e9e \u00e0 Londres en 1879, Gwendoline Maud Syrie Barnardo s\u2019impose rapidement dans l\u2019Europe anglophile avant d’exporter son talent et influence en Am\u00e9rique.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Syrie Maugham, son nom de cr\u00e9atrice, a grandi dans une famille bourgeoise avec un p\u00e8re philanthrope et une m\u00e8re descendante d\u2019un Lord londonien. Au d\u00e9but de la vingtaine elle fait un pied-de-nez aux conventions, en raison de sa classe sociale, et d\u00e9veloppe des connaissances en d\u00e9coration. C\u2019est aupr\u00e8s de l’architecte Thornton Smith qu\u2019elle d\u00e9veloppe son go\u00fbt pour la restauration de meubles, les trompe-l\u2019\u0153il et faux-finis, l’habillage de fen\u00eatres et le rembourrage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ce n\u2019est toutefois qu\u2019\u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 42 ans que Maugham d\u00e9marre son entreprise qui re\u00e7oit l’attention de clients de part et d’autre de l’oc\u00e9an. Bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Londres, elle accomplit des contrats sur la c\u00f4te est am\u00e9ricaine avant d’ouvrir des succursales de Syrie ltd<\/em> \u00e0 Chicago et New York. C’est \u00e0 cette m\u00eame \u00e9poque, qu’elle travaille avec le duc et la duchesse de Windsor, Noel Coward, com\u00e9dien, romancier et auteur dramatique dramaturge, ainsi que la designer de mode Elsa Schiaparelli.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

C’est ce salon, enti\u00e8rement tapiss\u00e9e en blanc, qui marque l’imaginaire de l’\u00e9poque et galvanise son travail. Pour cr\u00e9er ce look int\u00e9gral, Maugham n’a utilis\u00e9 que des textures et accessoires en blanc: du velour des canap\u00e9s \u00e0 la peinture des murs en passant par les carpettes et meubles. Seuls les miroirs au mur n’adh\u00e8rent pas \u00e0 la stricte palette mais accentue encore davantage l’effet immacul\u00e9.<\/p>\n

La sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 de Syrie Maugham est \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent renomm\u00e9e: elle transforme les antiquit\u00e9s sans remords qu’elle peint en blanc suivant la tendance du blanc impos\u00e9 par les Modernistes parisiens. Quelques-uns de ces meubles ont m\u00eame pris place dans les designs d\u2019Elsie de Wolfe. M\u00eame qu\u2019il y aurait peut-\u00eatre eu une rivalit\u00e9 entre les deux femmes. Il est racont\u00e9 que lorsque De Wolf d\u00e9barquait dans la ville du palais de Buckingham, Maugham demandait \u00e0 ses employ\u00e9s de cacher certains meubles pour que l\u2019Am\u00e9ricaine n\u2019y ait pas acc\u00e8s.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cette designer n\u2019a pas laiss\u00e9 de m\u00e9moires ou autres cahiers de travail d\u00e9crivant son \u0153uvre, c\u2019est pour cette raison que peu d\u2019images sont disponibles. Au cours des derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es toutefois, plusieurs auteurs(trices) et professeurs(es) ont red\u00e9couverts le travail de cette grande dame du design et mis \u00e0 jour l’immense influence qu’elle a eu sur toute une g\u00e9n\u00e9ration d’artistes, de com\u00e9diens, de vedette et du public en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral.<\/p>\n

Elle nous inspire encore<\/h3>\n

La revalorisation des meubles antiques \u00e9tait la marque de commerce et la force de la propri\u00e9taire de Syrie Ltd. Il est alors impossible de nier que plusieurs cr\u00e9atrices et cr\u00e9ateurs suivent ses traces aujourd\u2019hui. Certains se penchent vers de r\u00e9elles antiquit\u00e9s et d\u2019autres ont pour mission de r\u00e9duire l\u2019utilisation de meubles fabriqu\u00e9s en s\u00e9rie, une pratique qui s\u2019ins\u00e8re dans la mouvance de la consommation pleine conscience.<\/p>\n

L\u2019atelier Revalorisation A\u00efna<\/u><\/em><\/a>, \u00e0 Qu\u00e9bec, travaille principalement avec des antiquit\u00e9s issues d’un pass\u00e9 lointain ou\u2026 un peu moins, en trouvant toujours moyen d\u2019y apporter un coup d’\u00e9clat.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ainsi qu\u2019une cette entreprise bien \u00e9tablie, Rien ne se perd<\/u><\/a><\/em><\/u>, <\/u><\/em>aussi situ\u00e9 dans la Capitale nationale, qui se sp\u00e9cialise dans les projets sp\u00e9ciaux, les recherches et transformations sur mesure et la revalorisation en tout genre.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Syrie Maugham laisse derri\u00e8re elle l\u2019id\u00e9e, aujourd’hui monnaie courante, d\u2019utiliser des palettes monochromes dans nos d\u00e9cors. Certes, avec le blanc mais aussi avec d’autres teintes en look int\u00e9gral. Il est int\u00e9ressant de constater que certaines des grandes dames du design ont \u00e9t\u00e9 amen\u00e9es \u00e0 travailler ensemble \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque o\u00f9 la gente f\u00e9minine se faisait rare dans le domaine. Il faut aussi se rappeler que Syrie Maugham a certainement marqu\u00e9 l\u2019\u00e9lite de Londres non seulement parce qu\u2019elle a bris\u00e9 les conventions en suivant une formation de d\u00e9coration, mais aussi parce qu\u2019elle a d\u00e9marr\u00e9 tardivement son entreprise. Pour toutes ces raisons, elle continue de nous inspirer.<\/p>\n
