Adorable Paris Apartment of French Designer Anne Hubert

This apartment is the ravingly colourful and joyful home of French stylist, designer and entrepreneur Anne Hubert. Now, if you haven't heard of Anne Hubert before, let me enlighten you in a sentence or two. Starting off as a photography stylist for French magazines and interior design companies, Anne then went on to open her own design company called La Cerise sur le Gรขteau (The Cherry on the Cake). Her design collection is built on the premise of reinterpreting classic French household linens with a modern twist, and runs to a philosophy of providing nothing but the highest quality.

So that brings us to Anne's home... What got my attention is her undeniable penchant for colour, and a fearlessness to use it. Evoking more of what could be the interior of a country house, rather than a Parisian apartment, her home is situated on the top floor, at the height of Paris' mesmerising rooftops. Renovated into a larger apartment from what used to be three separate 'chambres de bonne' (small one-bedroom living quarters normally reserved for maids, many years ago), the apartment is a clean, white canvas splashed throughout with colour and shapes.

With the ceilings sitting relatively low, it was important, when designing the interior, to hold one's visual attention at eye-level or close to the floor. This was achieved with Anne adorning her home with her favourite furniture and accessories collected over the years. It is clearly evident that a practiced stylist's hand has waved a magic wand in this home. Every object appears so perfectly placed, at just the right angle or height, and every colour, tone and hue livens the other elements that surround it.
