Paris
The grandeur of an historic Parisian home
For centuries, Paris, the City of Light, has been at the heart of influence in terms of culture, lifestyle, economy, politics and literature. In the heart of the city, you’ll find the Marais, a well-preserved medieval quarter full of narrow cobblestone streets, secret courtyards and serene gardens. Formerly an aristocratic neighbourhood which was home to famous figures like writer Victor Hugo, it is now filled with the best art galleries and museums. We take a look at how a local home draws endless inspiration from its surroundings.
Juliette's dream home
High ceilings, crown mouldings, hardwood floors and large airy rooms make this 18th-century family mansion a dream to live in. Complemented with clean, classic furnishings, the historic space is elevated with sleek, elegant touches.
Grand interiors filled with quintessential Parisian charm steeped in history – Juliette needed a kitchen that matched the beauty of her home yet was fitted with vintage touches and conveniences for day-to-day living and entertaining.
With the original features of the home still intact, Juliette needed kitchen designs and premium surfaces that complemented the current interior and had the same timeless qualities and magnificent craftsmanship.
A source of creative inspiration
Parisians truly have that elusive “savoir vivre”, living elegantly amidst gorgeous architecture, landmarks and bustling culture. Paris’s status as a design capital is palpable, with each area packed with historic elements – a heritage that is reflected in the homes of the Marais.
