Aliénor at home
Aliénor Cros
is an interior designer and consultant for both historic and contemporary interiors.
She is currently working on a folly in the English countryside inspired by Whistler's Peacock Room, a project that combines both her passion for decorative arts and her love of colour. Whilst she works with all periods of historical design and decoration, Aliénor finds herself particularly drawn to the Victorian era, specifically the aesthetic movement, arts & crafts, gothic revival, all of which are apparent in her own home (as seen in The World of Interiors) where she lives with her husband and rescue greyhound.
