We visited French artist Geoffroy Pithon in his studio in La Montagne, a village a few kilometers from Nantes. A few years ago, when he and his partner were looking for a larger home after the birth of their first child, they found a house that already included a small painting studio. The previous owner, an architect, had created the room for his own practice. For Geoffroy, who had spent several years working in shared studios, it offered the chance to work from home and bring family life and his artistic practice closer together.
