About

In their quest to create homes that embody the principles of well-being and sustainability, our founders’ paths converged in a most unexpected way. Thomas, with his background in architecture, had established his own successful firm, while Ann had spent years immersed in the world of fashion.

Their lives were on distinct trajectories until the disruptive force of a global pandemic and a severe health challenge intervened. Illness was a catalyst for profound change in their circumstances. It compelled them to re-evaluate their existence, fostering a heightened awareness in areas such as nutrition, mindset, and overall well-being. This awakening paved the way for the birth of Maison Osaïn.

Maison Osaïn is not just about houses; it’s a philosophy — a commitment to crafting healthy and sustainable homes that place the well-being of their residents and the surrounding environment at the forefront.

The name Maison Osaïn draws inspiration from the Yoruba religion, where Osaïn is revered as a deity. Osaïn embodies the wisdom of plants and nature, teaching us their significance and how to use them wisely. He is also associated with healing, renewal, and restoration, values that deeply resonate with our mission. In much the same way, Maison Osaïn breathes life into aging houses, transforming them into vibrant, sustainable homes using natural and eco-friendly materials.

At Maison Osaïn, our mission involves the acquisition, development, and sale of fully furnished homes, often through collaborations with talented artists and creators. We breathe new life into aging structures, preserving their authentic character while infusing them with contemporary comfort and style. These renewed homes are then passed on to new owners, carrying with them the essence of revitalization and purpose.

Every aspect of our work is imbued with intentionality. Every material, every detail, every element is meticulously chosen to construct not just a house but a home—a place of refuge and inspiration where every corner resonates with purpose. Within our spaces, a profound sense of alignment and intimacy connects the inhabitants to the vibrant community that surrounds them, creating a world where our living spaces align with our deepest values, fostering havens of well-being, harmony, and purpose.
