Why French Country Works for Boardrooms

Large Space Tips
Large French Country spaces embrace generous dining tables, multiple seating areas, and abundant textiles. The elegant-yet-relaxed nature handles volume gracefully. In a larger boardroom: Large boardrooms (18+ seats) handle full board meetings, shareholder events, and major presentations. Impressive presence with full technology and hospitality.
Budget-Friendly
Paint existing furniture in soft colors, add toile fabric as accents, and find Provincial-style pieces at estate sales. Focus on patina and character over perfect condition.
Luxury Approach
Source authentic French antiques, commission custom toile drapery, invest in genuine Provincial pottery, and work with dealers specializing in French furniture.
