Barda

Barda seeks to redefine how we consume by putting new emphasis on the product and valuing the person at the centre of the creative process. This approach, built upon the philosophy of the French movement called Slow Made, is in perfect harmony with principles of sustainable and coordinated development. Time and expertise are the heart of the Slow Made philosophy. The movement encourages a form of principled consumerism in which the customer plays a key role by choosing an object that was made “by taking the necessary time” and that embodies a shared set of values. As a businessperson, Catherine Vayssier’s core values are to take the time to fully understand her clients’ needs and to respect the artistic integrity of her creative partners. Barda seeks to champion a new kind of consumption based on emotion and connection. Because it works with artisans on small runs of high quality products, Barda is able to offer specialized services such as sourcing of unique pieces and custom creations for both individuals and interior decoration professionals. The company’s mission is to offer haute couture-style service for interior decoration.
