As I prepare to fly to Paris in what is now less than two weeks (yaaaay!!), I can't help but keep an eye on what is happening over there in the city of art, culture, and wonderful wine. So here's a little project I stumbled across recently...
We find ourselves in a fresh and light filled Parisian duplex. Located between Rue Saint-Honoré and Les Tuilleries, the apartment belongs to Sarah Lavoine, who is also the apartment designer. I particularly love the perfect mix of white, crisp freshness married with the vintage turquoise. The colour makes timely appearances in almost each spaces within this apartment, visually tying the user's journey through the home. I'm also a big fan of the contrast that is achieved between the white floorboards and the metal staircase, it gives the home a touch of a rugged warehouse feeling...
The whole apartment is adorable, but there is one more subtle thing I'd like to point out that doesn't jump out immediately in these photos, and that is the use of the mirrors in the window coves. What a simple yet fabulous idea!! The mirrors not only give depth to the coves, but reflect and expand that beautiful light coming into the duplex. What luck, to have such an amazingly grandiose space to design... One day...
