The Luxury Brand for Culture
Founded in 1994 in Paris by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline stands as the first luxury brand in the field of culture. The roots of the brand delve deep into the world of visual narratives and rich stories. Their aim from the outset was to create a contemporary library that embodies the beauty of knowledge and culture. Driven by their passion for knowledge, culture, fashion, and travel, the Assouline couple expanded their vision to over 1,700 titles in three main collections. These not only include books but also special editions, unique library accessories, and exclusive candles - an impressive testament to their inspiring creations.
Books as Artworks
However, the heart of Assouline lies in the creation of books that are as informative as they are beautiful artworks. From the traditional technique of hand-bound binding to the luxurious thickness of each page, Assouline's books reflect a standard of unparalleled excellence and attention to detail.
Assouline's Candles
The Assouline scented candles "Travel from Home" offer a unique way to bring the feeling of travel and the atmosphere of different destinations into one's own home. Created by the renowned perfumer Jérôme Epinette, these scented candles embody the essence of various exotic places around the world. The "Travel From Home" candles are not only scented candles but also a journey for the senses. Each candle is artistically designed and carries its unique character.
Collaborations by Assouline
Assouline has also forged groundbreaking collaborations, including with renowned brands such as Gucci and Olympia Le-Tan. These partnerships have led to exclusive products, such as Assouline-inspired patches from Gucci and hand-embroidered book clutch designs from Olympia Le-Tan.
Assouline x One Tree Planted
Furthermore, Assouline has taken a significant step towards environmental responsibility. In collaboration with the non-profit organization One Tree Planted, Assouline has committed to planting one tree for every book sold. This initiative, launched in 2019, is a crucial step towards a more sustainable future. One Tree Planted, as an organization dedicated to reforestation and tree planting, shares Assouline's vision for a better planet. Together, they are working towards making the world greener and healthier. Through the partnership and their efforts to produce books from responsibly sourced trees, Assouline has not only influenced the publishing industry but also initiated a positive change towards environmental protection.
