aho is the Hawaiian word generally translated into English as

“outdoors”.

Wow is the onomatopoeic sound we make to express surprise

and then smile broadly.

Fabrice Perret goes on to explain. “What happened with the pandemic is

that people finally realised how precious Nature is, and how important

it is to be able to spend time comfortably outside”. Perret adds a touch of

fantasy, making the link between indoors and outdoors so seamless and

so pleasurable.

« I like to say that the exterior of a house should be arranged with just as

much attention to detail as a room that we love.” Fabrice Perret likes to

stage. He’s a lover of theatre, and he also acts in comedies, which confirms

his penchant for “the amusing and light-hearted”. And it’s just as well!

Giving himself full freedom in his furnishings, Perret uses various tex-

tiles, material, lighting and furniture that are easily moved between house

or garden. Perfection reigns from concept to production. “With a thought

to finishing touches, weather resistance, and esthetics, we’ve come up with

incredible comfort. Many people are looking for new ways of not having

to constantly go in and out.” Entertaining is made easier these days with

the use of ceramic “kamados” for smoking, grilling, or roasting, tempera-

ture-controlled wine fridges and mobile bars; and a panoply of collections

from companies specialised in the demands of outside living.

Profusion rhymes with cohesion: Fabrice visits his clients in person, or

works with photos, to propose a design with a full WAHO effect that’s both

state-of-the-art and long-lasting.
