In a variation of blue, white and pink, an apartment with a view of the sky and the Eiffel Tower, renovated by the agency GCG Architectes. Between Arts Deco influences and contemporary design, frescoes, mosaics and tapestries harmonize with serenity.
Like an extension of the sky, an invitation to travel, the fresco by the artist Sacha Floch Poliakoff evokes a landscape of ancient Greece. This living room with huge volumes, the architects wanted to envelop it: round woodwork, deep sofa, Moroso, soft hand-knotted carpet, Maison S… Designed by GCG Architectes, the coffee table is a sculpture in the shape of a lotus whose handcrafted ribs in teak seem to vibrate. On top of a ceramic vase and a hammered metal sculpture, Homata.
Each bedroom has an attached bathroom. that of children has a walk-in shower with a wall of graphically composed cement tiles and on the floor a calmer tiling reminiscent of a granite. The cremone bolt and the window hinges are painted black to emphasize their finesse and to save space, a mirror has been placed at an angle.
The parents’ bathroom is vaulted with niches and the round structure of the shower walls. Created by Cika from the Lilikpó workshop, drawing beautiful mosaics on the walls and on the floor sets of rolls in different materials and colors.
In the entrance, in a nod to the highly graphic motifs of the 1925-1930s, stained glass windows made by L’Âme du Vitrail. A couch painted deep blue cleverly hides the radiator and on the floor a rug by Marguerite Le Maire takes over the two shades of blue.
Softness for the master bedroom: on the walls a very matte, patinated white paint; the ceiling as a deep blue canopy contrasts with pink accents, very pale for the headboard and stronger on the carpet. Plaid, Moaroom. Sheets and pillows, La Redoute Interiors. Maison Dada bedside table.
In the children’s room, the sky blue softly colors the ceiling and the deeper blue underlines the shelves in the playful shape of a house. On the wallpaper, About the colors, abundant foliage, a jungle as a refuge for photos Nicolas Mathéus the floor lamp with small birds.
An accordion wall separates the living room from a small living room library. When folded, the two living rooms are one, spacious and intersecting. Deployed, the dividing wall isolates the small room that became a guest bedroom. The four colors of the palette created by the architects are present in the “capsule” motif, taken from the woodwork of the living room, carved in the wood and dressed in colored leather.
Brass adds gold accents to the furniture and here too to the crockery and linen-edged napkins, CFOC × Valérie Barkowski.
Cika, from the Lilikpó workshop, made the mosaic top of the kitchen table to measure. Glasses and carafe, Monoprix.
On the walls of the dining room we find the woodwork made by GCG Architectes, painted matt white along the edges and glossy inside, topped with sky blue, like a horizon line. The ceiling embossed with replicated kaleidoscope patterns created by the Atelier d’Offard is surrounded by darker blue thatprivacy. Around the table the chairs, Werner Panton, upholstered in a Lelièvre fabric. Tray on foot, CFOC.
