A Parisian apartment may be a dream for many,the interior of which will always remind us of its location in the center of fashion and elegance. In our minds, Paris is the smell of morning freshness and the chirping of birds in a cozy courtyard, which persistently awaken us from sleep, preparing us to meet a new, eventful day.
Apartment for a fashion designer
Not long ago, in an apartment of 100 sq.meters underwent renovation. The interior was changed taking into account the requests of the owner, a Parisian couturier and collector of African painting. According to the plan, informal events with the participation of representatives of the fashion industry and the creative bohemia of Paris would take place here. It was important to create two different zones: a public one, which would include a living room, kitchen and additional toilet, and a private one consisting of the owner's bedroom, dressing room, guest room and two bathrooms. The updated interior has lost its interior partitions, becoming more spacious and open. The entrance area clearly delineates the functional parts of the apartment, providing comfort to numerous visitors.
Compact kitchen in the spacious lobby
One of the customer's key requirements wascreating a completely inconspicuous kitchen, since she rarely cooks at home. As a result, the kitchen was combined with the hallway, where guests enter as soon as they cross the threshold of the apartment.
Mirrors and marble
But it’s not so much the cuisine that amazes visitors,how much an idyllic composition, made up of objects with a comfortable, smooth texture. Soft light envelops the marble monolith of the island, is reflected in the mirrored wall behind which the guest toilet is hidden, and highlights the built-in furniture in a muted gray shade.
Eastern aesthetics
The walls of the guest toilet are covered with tiles made ofIznik ceramics. It literally fills the interior with its dynamic ornament with floral motifs. When the sliding door is open, the outlandish pattern reflected in the mirrors intrigues and excites curiosity.
Space and light
As with most Parisian houses, the layoutThe apartments provide exits to two quiet courtyards, protecting residents from street noise. The new design provides each room with a panoramic view of the courtyard from the window, filling the interior with natural light and fresh air. During the renovation, a number of walls were dismantled and the parquet flooring was accidentally damaged. Therefore, the dark oak flooring with a chevron pattern was replaced with wide panels of light Oregon pine. The position of the boards, together with the ceiling lighting, sets the direction of movement from the hallway to the living room.
Personal chambers
Materials for bedroom and individualThe zones differ from those used in the design of public spaces. Since this is a secluded personal territory, the designers decided to hide it as reliably as possible in the depths of the apartment. A massive door the entire height of the wall additionally delimits the zones, protecting them from unwanted intrusions. In the dressing room there are oak cabinets up to the ceiling with acrylic handles. The style and individuality of the private bathrooms is emphasized by their laconic decoration. In one, snow-white matte tiles with mirrors create a feeling of cleanliness. In the second, light glossy tiles, lined with black seams, radiate shine and radiance.
The goal of the redevelopment was to create smoothtransitions between zones through the competent use of materials. Now the apartment has a lot of light and space, so necessary for the world-famous customer. Here she will be able to display her collections and relax after noisy events in her secluded bedroom.
