If you look closely, beyond the chic, beyond the budget-busting furniture and accessories, you'll see this — ideas you can use in your space.
Images from left to right:
1. Keeping furniture in the same palette allows one to mix styles, without appearing chaotic. In this case, the rumpled slipcovered sofa, the sleek modern side table and the vintage armchairs create a singular backdrop for the beautifully saturated rug and a wall full of personal treasures.
2. White walls and bedding play nicely off of a wall of sooty shelves. The contrast between the two also emphasizes the brightness of the books, toys and clothes housed within. Adding a loose canopy over a bed creates a spot of soft seclusion.
3. Wallpaper and bright splashes of paint (seen in the previous image) can create moments of whimsy within a shelving unit. Adding paper lanterns ups the quirkiness factor even more.
4. A tight color palette in an open plan bedroom allows the details of each area to shine. Here, the bedroom is separated from the bathroom with a teal-colored wall and a pair of floor length curtains that block the light on one side and act as a soft divider on the other. Visible just beyond, the vividly patterned tiles of the bathroom continue the color scheme.
5. The pure white palette of the workspace establishes a mental as well as physical separation from the main bedroom. Built-in desks and wall-mounted sconces maximize and streamline a space.

I've loved the work of Double G for years! I'm thrilled to see their work on AT. I really love the master bedroom closet in Grand Boulevard -- love how the interior is Tiffany Blue! (I plan on copying their closets).
Most of all though, I love Saint Georges 2, which was featured on French tv. The pictures don't do it justice!
I'm in love with this home. Where can I get the mushroom at the child's bedroom?
Makes me want to get out be white paint.
I would never think to put saffron with fuchsia, but it works. It's an Indian mix, yet not with all that white.
@LITTLE LULU The mushroom is from Anthropologie -

this is definitely one of my all time favorites. so beautiful!
Gorgeous!
I think the white and fuschia is very over done in Paris. The last two pics however are more inspired!
We are in the process of designing and quoting out custom bookcases for our living room and have some wide spans to cover but nothing like the width in the first picture. How in the world are those shelves supported? The unbroken horizontal lines are lovely, but it almost seems impossible with that many pounds of books.
The living room wall-to-wall and to-the-ceiling shelving is a striking way to store and display many small items prettily, safe from pets and little kids. That's practical: just this week an adult dog regressed, stole my husband's book from a bookcase, and chewed it. I'd copy this shelf if not for reluctance to commit to built-ins. Instead, I'm considering barristers. The shelving shown frees floor space, too. A sofa or bench could be placed under the shelving as well as the desk chosen. Similar shelves installed over and around windows also can look very nice.
Thank you for posting this apartment. I've been obsessing about home libraries and the first photo really caught my eye.
I checked out Double g's website. They're brilliant and the portfolio is inspiring.
ErikaKN, thanks for the link. Based on your recommendation, I took a look at Double G's website - and I love how in every residential setting, the designers incorporate open shelving, tons of books, and, perhaps inexplicably, a white bunny rabbit (either in ceramic or as a plush toy)! Books and bunnies are good with me any day. :)
Very very inspiring..thanks.
Great room. Can anyone ID the coffee table?
Does anyone know a source for the rug in the first pic?
coffee table source please?
