Family home atmosphere


A young couple has chosen to expand his Paris apartment by adding the one upstairs. Their new interior, which can be visited on French magazine Marie-claire Maison, website, has become like a family home. The industrial tones of the decoration mix with the soft tones of the paintings. 
For the girl of the house, the pink wall is highlighted by a silver branch sticker. The bed from Ikea has been repainted in chocolate to match with the color palette. The soft shades of pink of the night table and the purple of the silk cover by Serendipity, offer a poetic and elegant atmosphere.



In the boy's room, the desk designed by an architect runs along the wall. It has been painted in the same chocolate color like the wall for a brown harmony. The wall has been prepared with a magnetic paint so that the magnetic letters can be fixed on it. Toy fish by Alexander Calder .


In the parents' room, the concrete floor lightly shaded in gray, brings a modern touch to the walls and the old chimney. The quilt on the bed is from Caravane chambre 19 ..



Upstairs the universe is totally dedicated to children with a family room in which a XL sofa takes place in the heart of the room. In front of the sofa, a glass table by Conran shop around which children play and draw. The  family atmosphere upstairs fits perfectly with the loft-like industrial atmosphere of the ground-floor .
