The first of its kind, the Atelier Primavera was created in 1912 by two supporters of the introduction of modernity in decorative arts, Pierre Laguionie, young manager of Le Printemps, and René Guilleré, lawyer and founder of the Société des Artistes décorateurs. Its role of initiator and disseminator was particularly significant in the domain of accessories (carpets, furnishing materials, wallpaper) which, thanks to mail orders, were distributed throughout France and, moreover, with the bibelots, mainly in ceramic, which rapidly became a speciality of the Atelier.

This book offers an exhaustive study of the Atelier Primavera, in which are detailed its history, running and production. It is enriched with hundreds of illustrations representing time documents, drawings and photographs, furniture, accessories and objets d'art created by Primavera.
