Michel Lasserre, Stefan Karlsson and Hassan Abdullah, photographed at Les Trois
Garons, Shoreditch, Lorenzo Agius
Michel Lasserre, Hassan Abdullah, and Stefan Karlsson Les Trois Garons are best known for their restaurant of the same name in Londons fashionable Shoreditch. The fabulous trio met more than twenty fve years ago and, with their shared passion for design, ran a successful business as antique dealers and interior designers, before making the move East from their then home in North London. It must have seemed highly unorthodox to many when, in 1996, the garons acquired the four storey Victorian pub at 1 Club Row in the heart of Shoreditch as their home, and subsequently as the site of their now famous restaurant. At that time it was not the fashionable area familiar today, but was a rather neglected, if well located corner of town. Not to be deterred and steadfast in their vision, Hassan, Michel and Stefan worked tirelessly to renovate and convert the building and in 2000 Les Trois Garons, opened its doors.
It was the frst restaurant of its kind, not only in Shoreditch but anywhere. With its unique interiors, mixing old and new, it brought together a fantastic blend of the surreal, the chic and the eccentric to create a unique and visually rich mise-en-scne, and with its sumptuous classic French cuisine, the garons soon found themselves inundated with visitors. Foodies, celebrities and bankers alike all beat a path to their door wanting relief from the standard west end offerings and to experience the unique pleasures of Les Trois Garons. In short the restaurant became a destination, and remains so today, counting amongst its illustrious patrons such well-known personalities as: Nicole Kidman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Grace Jones, Ely Golding, Kate Moss, Valentino, Miuccia Prada, Damien Hirst, and Madonna, to name but a few. In addition to the restaurant they run their own interior design practice, L3G Design, as well as their equally colourful cocktail bar, Loungelover, and caf-cum-design shop, Maison Trois Garons, all from their Shoreditch apartment above the restaurant.
Les Trois Garons

Some years ago the trio purchased the secluded fairytale Chteau de la Goujeonnerie in the Vende region of France, as a place of retreat from the hustle and bustle of their glamorous London lives. The magical chteau presented them with the perfect project, derelict when they acquired it, it was a truly blank canvas on which they have stamped their inimitable style. Treating each room as an individual space in which to evoke a different mood, both with their daring use of colour and their bold juxtapositions of antique furniture with striking 20th century design, they created a unique atmosphere. Although where their skill is truly realised is in the unity of these very different spaces, which so perfectly inhabit their sublime surroundings. However with the pressures of their busy lives the garons seldom have chance to enjoy their retreat and so have decided to simplify their lives by selling the collection from the chteau, along with some of the collection from their London home and selected iconic pieces from Les Trois Garons and Loungelover. AHS
We believe that we never really own anything, we are just guardians of beautiful objects
for the next generation, so enjoy and have fun with them while you can.
Hassan, Michel, Stefan

7Design is both a passion and a business for us; collecting is a compulsion, it always has been we love beautiful things. We bought the chteau as a retreat but in recent years our Shoreditch businesses have grown, our interior design practice has really taken off, and we have just launched a range of furniture designed by Hassan as well, so we have little spare time to spend there. We have now realized that we need to simplify our lives, so have decided to sell some of our collection and hope that others will enjoy these wonderful objects as much as we have.

Forbin was sent to Siam as part of a diplomatic mission and subsequently became the governor of Bangkok. After returning to France in 1688, he became a key commander in the war with Britain during which he was briefy captured and taken to Plymouth but quickly escaped. In 1708 he assisted The Old Pretender (James Stuart, 1688-1766) in his failed attempt on the English throne before retiring from the Navy in 1715.

P ROV ENAN C E :
Acquired directly from the artist in 2005.
The present and following lot were executed circa 2005 and were acquired by Les Trois Garons shortly before the landmark exhibition of Wateridges work at the David Risley Gallery, London. Constitution is a work on a monumental scale reminiscent of 19th century grande Salon History painting and the meticulous layering of paint on perspex sheets lends the work an added perspectival depth into which the viewer is drawn. In this layered method, Wateridge concerned himself with offering a kind of painting relevant to the 21st century as opposed to merely referencing any historical mode of representation.
I came upon this way of painting with oil on glass by accident. For me, to paint on canvas seemed to belong in the past, and really
couldnt give me the theatrical quality I was seeking.
To achieve these extraordinary and very beautiful effects is a time-intensive process. First, Wateridge handmakes exquisite models from which to work, such as crashed planes, a four-masted ship sitting at the bottom of the sea or the sinking of the battleship Missouri.
A similar work on plexiglass sheets entitled Mountain Wreck sold, Phillips London, 14 February 2013, lot 16 (109,250 incl.). A plane wreck scene on canvas sold Christies London, 11 October 2012, lot 3 (313,250 incl.).
I found myself looking a lot at 18th- and 19th-century landscape painting, which quite
often contains elements of disaster; and also [looking] at old glass matte paintings used
as backgrounds in cinematography.
Somewhere in that mix the idea to incorporate crashes and wreckage into the images
emerged. There is something in the level of aspiration in flying or crossing oceans that
I felt was suitable to the environments I was looking at.
And of course nature tends to be pretty indifferent to those aspirations and with that in
mind I wouldnt necessarily say the vehicles are the subject of these paintings. They
are landscapes that happen to contain them.

Marcello Piacentini (1880-1960) was an Italian architect and urban planner who achieved notoriety during the height of fascist power in Italy (1922-1943). In 1938, Piacentini was given the task of building EUR (Esposizione Universale di Roma), a new town on the outskirts of Rome where Mussolini planned in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the fascist revolution and which was to host the 1942 Worlds Fair. The project was never fully realised and many of the buildings were only completed after the war. The project was the culmination of Piacentinis career and it was his vision which created the unifed architecture of EUR which survives today. The present nine works appear to be architectural designs specifcally for this project, some of which were never realised. The designs include those for il Palazzo dei Congressi; Piazza Guglielmo Marconi; Piazza della Scienze; Palazzo della Civilta di Lovoro.
