Home in France

This early nineteenth century house is located in the village of Précy-sous-Thil, Cote d'or, in the region of Bourgogne, France. Anna Bonde, textile and furniture designer, was influenced both by her native Sweden and the Provencal style when she furnished her home.

An outbuilding that used to be the servants' quarters was renovated. Now, Anna's children and grandchildren stay here when they come to visit. In this room there are two in built beds on each side of the room.
