A balance between formal radicalism and everyday comfort.

Located in the Marais district, this Haussmann-style dual-aspect apartment with classic volumes was designed as a space of deliberate contrasts. The project is based on a subtle dialogue between the classicism of the space—herringbone parquet flooring, original moldings, generous volumes—and a careful selection of contemporary design pieces with a strong sculptural identity.

The furniture chosen meets a dual requirement: to create a lively and expressive space while maintaining a certain formal clarity. An inverted cone-shaped table and its geometric seats create a kind of livable sculpture, while a large glass table flanked by industrial-style chairs asserts aesthetic rigor without sacrificing conviviality.

The project embraces a curatorial approach to interior design: each room interacts with the others, contrasting materials—glass, metal, velvet—create a rhythm in the space, while the chosen objects tell a story of taste, collection, and display.

The apartment thus becomes a living space that thinks like an exhibition: that of an aesthetic daily life, inhabited and assumed.
