One of the most beautiful apartments we have had the opportunity to work on. In the heart of the Left Bank, our client wished to renovate the whole family apartment, shared with her husband and their four children, all students returning from time to time.This attic apartment did not require a radical transformation, but a series of subtle, carefully considered changes. In addition to redecorating the entire apartment, we redesigned the entrance, framing a panel of wallpaper like a painting opposite the private lift serving the floor. The guest bedroom was renovated with botanical-inspired wallpaper and a selection of green fabrics by Lelièvre. The kitchen was completely rethought, replacing dark wood with Hague Blue lacquered fronts. Its dining table was also redesigned. The bar was given a more angular form and clad in dark sandblasted oak veneer and brushed-brass Metapal, topped with a white Carrara-effect quartz worktop.
Finally, the living room was simplified: the radiators were replaced with low cast-iron models concealed within an MDF unit painted to match the walls, with a niche for art books.
All the seating—dining benches, armchair, chaise longue and sofas—was reupholstered in a range of green Lelièvre fabrics.
The result is a warm, pared-back interpretation of a quintessentially Parisian apartment: the kind of home where you want to curl up on the sofa with a good book.
