A former artist’s studio in the heart of Paris is transformed into a gorgeous, sun-filled family home, featuring designer furnishings and bold artwork
You can’t avoid gazing out of the picture windows the moment you enter this incredible Parisian home. It is as if something is directing your sight straight towards the Eiffel Tower and city rooftops. Then, you suddenly become aware of the vast expanses of sky that surround it.
The loft is located on two floors of a Haussmann building, just round the corner from the posh Parc Monceau – a gorgeous, tranquil garden renowned for its curvaceous layout and casually placed historic statues. Despite having a total floor area of just 820 square feet, this sun-filled eyrie is, amazingly, the home of a couple and their five children.
The unique loft’s architecture and interior design blend conventional Parisian flair with daring contemporary elements, and it is all the work of the loft’s owner and interior designer, Elke Danet.
In fact, this home was previously an artist’s studio, complete with a back staircase and attic bedrooms. One enters the remarkable space through a small portal, which cleverly hides the fact that beyond the entrance awaits a fresh, luminous apartment with soaring ceilings and designer furnishings.
