    What I really liked about this apartment is that not only were the renovations smart, it genuinely looked like people lived there. Too often architectural and interior programs show these little perfect models that feel to precious to be called a home. Not this one. A great blend of style, function, and comfort 👍

      The use of different materials and accented designs are very clever and understated, but there are some small inconveniences that wouldn’t be noticed until you start living there daily. Mainly, having the stove top on the kitchen island without a back splash or induction vent make it impractical to cook anything without a mess or covering the entire living room furniture with oil and grease.

    It’s great that the architect/owner reinterpreted a vision of the 1970s in this space, while also making sure it functions for his requirements in the current era. Very stylish and efficient use of every single bit of space, too. Well done!

    Great job using colors and materials in keeping with the building’s vintage. This is too often overlooked and helps any home feel timeless, rather than becoming dated ten years after renovation.

    My favourite details ....1) immediately walking in, hanging up your coat and then washing your hands in that sink! 2) the way the TV is both central and accessible, but low, so it doesn't take over the space. 3) the kitchen cabinetry! 4) dimmable lights in the bath room! I only wish you could have shown the balcony plants getting lit up at night, that sounds beautiful.

    Love the style of the appartment . Very understated . As a recently graduated architect who works in the arrondissement , it’s very difficult to find an appartment at a reasonable price around here (the price of the square meter has been multiplied by 5 since the early 2000s) , so you’d definitely have to find ways to make the most of every square meter .
    The surface that they managed to find is quite impressive to be honest and they made great use of it !
    Also the mirror in the kitchen is definitely a trick I’ll use in the future .

    Very nice job. Practical flat with a 70's atmosphere. The architect spoke about his terrace which is not. In fact it is a balcony. A terrace is built on someone else's apartment below. Meanwhile a balcony is built as an extension of a building which means that there is nobody under. It's empty. By the way the balcony is very well furnished and has a nice urban view. Congratulations.

      Not just the renovation, even in desperate state 53sqm (not small by any standard btw) in such an area and building, with a balcony (extremely rare in Paris), must have cost an awful lot.
