I know, how can you go too far wrong in this glorious space - right? According to the article in Architectural Digest, the aprtment is in a building from the 1600's. It has interiors from the 18th century and, yes, naturally, it is in Paris of all places. But, even though the location and architecture are special, this is simply a beautiful collection of pieces - a feast of color, art, pattern and flowers that would create a similarly lovely and quirky home anywhere, no matter the pedigree of the four walls that enclose them.
Unforgettable details:
• the Dali lithograph of the horse
• those orangey red drapes!
• the combo of pale mint green walls, hot pink pillows and an antique OPIUM BED as a cocktail table

Commercial Flour Sa...
Don't forget the view!
The view was the first to catch my eye! Very French-country.
w.o.w. What dreams are made of.
Maybe someone can help me with something. I'm looking for french doors like the ones from the pic. I'm looking to replace two windows in a brick wall into two sets of doors.(rough opening 32-34inch) Are they custom made? Can they be made to be energy efficient with high R ratings?
Thanks.
The windows are to die for.
The bed is...very confined...not nice for people who suffer from claustrophobia
Those windows...they make my heart ache.
An apartment overlooking the Place des Vosges. Means DSK is her neighbor.
A delightful relief from midcentury everywhere -- lush, colorful, soaring ceilings, detailed finishes and embellishments ..aaaahhhh.
Gorgeous, I am in love. But omggah, she PAINTED all the WOOD! lolzz
Is that the Place des Vosges? Now THAT is a posh address.
Wow. Gorgeous.
I can't imagine having that wonderful view overlooking the Place des Vosges (near where Hugo wrote Les Miserables, even!). The article says she bought in 1983, when prices in the Marais were "shockingly cheap." Not so much now.
