Isabelle kept the original industrial-style glass partition wall as a nod to the history of the workshop. She turned the kitchen into a room that fits the homeowners’s needs while nodding to the unit’s past. For the mounted cabinets along the windows, the combination of birch with the white color that is dominant in the apartment results in a feeling that is warm and deliberately restrained.
Both the architect and the clients wanted to keep the former tailor’s office, which now serves as a guest room. The bathroom designs come as a surprise, full of color that contrast with the apartment’s omnipresent white. Behind a green door, the powder room’s pink tiles and porcelain stoneware floor are especially striking.
In a typical French, and especially Parisian, way there is a meticulous attention to every last detail. The white color palette of the floor and walls makes the interior design elements stand out, including vintage pieces like the dining table and lamps and more contemporary design objects such as Achile Castigiloni’s classic Snoopy lamp.
