Elle Décoration visits the home of Aurélie Mathigot, a Paris-based artist who makes enchanting crocheted furniture and accessories. Her penchant for all that is precious and retro is tempered with sober black paint and industrial furniture for a very personal look...

Even Parisians sometimes have a bit of nostalgia for the postcard Paris of yesteryear...

Aurélie keeps yarns for her creations out in the open, stacked beautifully on a vintage steel cabinet.

The matte black paint from the bedroom is reprised here in the bathroom, with a pretty vintage chandelier and twin medicine kit chests on the wall.
