This completely renovated apartment on Place des Vosges first required major structural work before Mathilde Jourdes and Ines Venière could redesign its layout.
Dressed in a midnight blue shade by Ressources, the entrance hall takes on the appearance of a black box, welcoming visitors into a cozy atmosphere. Built-in cupboards and benches maximize every inch of space, while an irregularly shaped mirror adds a softer touch as it subtly plays with reflections.
The contrast between the dark, enveloping vestibule and the light-filled living room is striking. The renovation, completed with the help of Gary Corp, has created a spacious open-plan living room, designed to be the new heart of the home.
The owners wanted to improve the flow of the space and add additional rooms—a laundry room, open kitchen, and primary suite with dressing room. The long, windowless hallway that ran through the apartment was removed, freeing up valuable square footage and allowing for the creation of a large open-plan room combining the living room, dining room, and kitchen.

Mathilde Jourdes and Ines Venière orchestrated the selection of furniture, contributing to the apartment’s timeless atmosphere. The beige walls, punctuated with touches of black and different types of wood, bring warmth and depth to the spaces. The Ethnicraft table and Cartel de Belleville chairs fit harmoniously into this understated, elegant setting.
The L-shaped sofa naturally opens up to the rest of the room. Indochina pendant lights from Maison Nordik adorn the ceiling, while vintage furniture, sourced from Cartel de Belleville and internet classifieds, punctuates the space with character and uniqueness.
The kitchen opens widely onto the living room. Numerous built-in cabinets provide plenty of open shelving, closed cupboards, and large niches. The trapezoidal shape of one of them echoes the Violaine d’Harcourt wall lights. The contrast between dark wood and beige surfaces adds warmth and character, while the magnificent Carresol Éditions herringbone parquet flooring completes the look with elegance.
Some of the custom storage units, painted the same color as the walls, blend into the decor and give the impression of spaciousness. Handles by La Quincaillerie Saint-Germain add the finishing touch to this minimalist design.
The Pierre de Plan countertop extends into the living room to form a bar, perfect for breakfast or simply socializing. The simplicity of the design is enhanced by discreet pendant lights by Serax, which punctuate the space without weighing down the composition. Muuto designer stools.
The sleeping area forms a straight line. The office, separated from the living room by the bedroom, is located at the far end of the apartment and therefore enjoys extra peace and quiet.
In the bedroom, the masonry headboard extends along one side, creating a clean and effective design. The configuration perfectly matches the width of the room, while maintaining clear access to the bathroom and dressing room. Gabrielle Paris bed linen.
The headboard incorporates a niche for the owners’ favorite books.
The dressing room, located behind the bedroom, acts as a passageway to the bathroom. The partition preserves privacy while maintaining a smooth flow. The restored and re-laid parquet flooring adds warmth to the space.
The bathroom features an elegant contrast between the light tones of the zellige tiles and the dark wood of the vanity unit. The brass fittings and custom-made shower niche combine functionality and refinement. A wall light by Zangra completes the look, providing soft, warm lighting.
Zellige tiles cover all the walls in the bathroom, including the shower area, creating a uniform and bright look. Tiles by Les Carreaux de Paco, brass faucets by masalledebain.com.
A child’s bedroom? Maybe one day! For now, this room at the back of the apartment serves as an office.
The desk is embellished with a glass top that intensifies the natural light in the space, which is largely illuminated by a large window.
