Located beneath the attic rooms of an 1880s Parisian building, this 40-square-meter apartment has been made more spacious thanks to the architectural firm P1–P1, in collaboration with Yurii Hutnyk’s general contracting firm.
Under the eaves, the architects work with the depth of the space and natural light to bring out the full potential of the site.
As soon as you enter, your gaze is drawn toward the office-dining area. Situated between the kitchen and the living room, it creates a sense of flow and transforms this formerly enclosed space into a lively thoroughfare.
In contrast, the kitchen helps breathe new life into the apartment.
The countertop aligns with the backsplash, which is installed to fit the contours of the roof as closely as possible.
The oak finish unifies the standard cabinetry, giving the unit a cohesive look. The appliances blend in seamlessly.
Extending from the office-dining room, the living room opens up to the balcony.
The window becomes the focal point of the project, framed by two oak bookcases that follow the curve of the mansard roof.
The white-tiled walkway makes it easier to access the balcony.
Designed by Paul Tubiana, the woodwork is both beautiful and practical! The storage solutions discreetly handle the demands of everyday life.
The living room maintains a simple yet inviting atmosphere. The brown leather of the armchair complements the black sofa, while the graphic rug adds a lively touch to the original hardwood floor.
Extended into the bedroom, the bathroom fits perfectly into the space without sacrificing light. The glass blocks filter the natural light, while the small Cinca tiles create a graphic border around the shower.
Adjacent to the bathroom, the bedroom opens up behind the restored original door.
The built-in storage blends into the white walls.
Near the bed, the glass block wall filters the light and creates a subtle texture.
