On the 10th floor of a 1970s building, this 58-square-meter apartment redesigned by interior designer Laura Loustau benefited from a double orientation and a continuous balcony.
Partitioned, the existing layout limited use and did not allow for natural light. In addition to creating a second bedroom, the reorganization opened up the large living area to a panoramic view of Paris.
The kitchen, at the heart of the apartment, is the hub around which all the other spaces revolve.
Stained okoumé wood joinery, combined with Taj Mahal quartzite, adds warmth and contrast to the countertop, storage units and central island.
The living area is organized around the bay windows and corner balcony.
The spaces flow seamlessly into one another, allowing views and light to flow freely.
Discreet, integrated custom-made storage units give the space a breath of fresh air.
The sleeping area is separated from the living area by fluted glass sliding doors with wooden frames. It benefits from the light from the living room and the unobstructed view, which continues to the bay window, while preserving the privacy of the bedroom.
The bed is integrated into a set of wall-mounted storage units, where the bookcase, cupboards and headboard meet. A clever, functional system!
Although compact, the bathroom is optimized and integrates all the necessary comforts: washing machine, bathtub and plenty of storage space. A green tiled wall adds character to this softly-toned space.
