A refined stopover between two worlds, where light, calm, and craftsmanship meet.

What a beautiful profession we have!

Our clients purchased this apartment a few years ago. It was in good condition and served its purpose while they took time to reflect on how to give it more soul, a better-optimized layout, and an aesthetic that truly felt like them. That reflection led them to reach out to us—a real compliment coming from design and architecture enthusiasts!

From there, the project unfolded step by step: from initial sketches to the final design, and through the consultation phase with contractors. Together, we shaped, refined, detailed, drew, and made decisions, ultimately arriving at the space you see today.

And the story doesn’t end here—Justine, the project manager, has since joined the clients in Miami to reimagine their winter home.

But let’s go back to Paris. The apartment’s main structure was preserved: a spacious living area, kitchen, and two bedrooms. Yet, a few thoughtful changes made all the difference. The kitchen was opened up to allow natural light to flow in. The sleeping area was completely reimagined, creating two independent suites—like in a hotel. We even carved out space for a laundry room.

The Project

The kitchen now opens onto the main hallway, partially separated by a bespoke unit: lower storage with a glass partition above. The continuous oak flooring gives the space a sense of visual unity.

A quick focus on the materials: we aimed for simplicity, using noble and timeless finishes. Here, luxury lies in the harmony of materials, shapes, and tones. The kitchen fronts are in Charleston-stained oak, arranged to play with the light. The countertops and backsplashes are made from Taj Mahal marble.

Cornices, Mouldings, Parquet

As always, we are committed to preserving the architectural details that define Parisian interiors. This apartment was rich with existing features—cornices, mouldings, hardwood floors. In any interior architecture project in Paris, it’s essential to understand these codes and work with skilled artisans to restore them. Wood, plaster, glass—this apartment showcases them all with finesse.

The master suite also features stained oak cabinetry. The walk-in closet cleverly hides a pivot door leading to the bathroom. As in the rest of the apartment, the materials are refined and elegant—never showy.
