What first began as a mission to revive the centuries-old artisanal craft of Scagliola stone, has twenty-five years later become the extraordinary, handcrafted home collections now synonymous with unparalleled craftsmanship and distinctive design.
Celebrating each material’s intrinsic beauty, the François & Co. Collection is curated with the utmost attention and care, offering a unique ‘whole home approach’ to artistry and design: from remarkable French oak and limestone flooring to elegant bistro countertops, hand-carved modern mantles or even the reclaimed treasures of a 17th century French farmhouse.
From first design inspirations and expertise to install and execution, François & Co. curates thoughtful collections that best align with the individual needs and budget of each and every client.
Boasting strong relationships with artisans, factories and suppliers around the globe, the company has become a true designer resource, offering not only craftsmanship and savoir-faire, but a full Architectural CAD department, client care and technical support, and exceptional custom products and finishes that might otherwise prove challenging to individually source and acquire.
Surfaces
Naturally Exquisite
Sourced from the most varied and unique corners of the world, the surfaces collections bring together both heritage materials and timeless sophistication.
French hardwoods, historic limestones, reclaimed terra cotta and handcrafted Zellige – the collection spans from the historic to the most contemporary.
Refined elegance spanning time and space.
Hardwood
Hailing from sustainable forests in the heart of France, the French Oak flooring collection celebrates warmth, time and patina – unique in character and timeless in tone.
Featuring a tighter grain of hardwood often used to make wine barrels, the wood undergoes a specialized thermal pressure treatment and pH-modified water bath, triggering a natural reaction between iron and wood tannins that results in a luscious earthly color resistant to fading.
Available in both solid and engineered, the French Oak collection creates a luxurious, elegant canvas for the home.
Stone
Sought after for its luster, hardness and rich, layered history, the newly quarried Marble and Limestone collections bring a timeless sophistication to any space, with a vast selection of color, tone and texture.
Terra Cotta & Zellige
Spanning shape, size, palette and patina, the Terra Cotta Collection is hand chosen and collected from antique French farmhouses and country châteaux – originally handcrafted and wood fired, dating back to over a century or more.
The Zellige collection, in collaboration with Tiles of Ezra, celebrates the beauty of imperfection and sustainable, living craftsmanship, dating back through generations of Moroccan artisans. Each piece is unique and handcrafted, ensuring no two tiles are exactly alike.
