A designer’s Paris apartment

Posted on Thu, 26 Sep 2024 by KiM

Located in Paris’s 14eme arrondissement, Jessica Helgerson lovingly designed this 550 sq ft apartment for herself and her family. She took inspiration from the 14eme itself, a neighborhood with a village-like feel: abundant community gardens, quiet streets, mutual aid associations, and influence of many resident artists past and present. The apartment is playful and pastoral, with a rich palette of greens and filled with art made almost entirely by friends. The mural in the bedroom was hand-painted by Jessica to reflect the view out the window – leafy, green, and full of joy. Nearly all the furnishings are antiques sourced at Paris flea markets and elsewhere in France. The ceiling light fixtures are part of a lighting line designed by Jessica.
This apartment is so full of joy and light, and that green tile is STUNNING. J’adore! Photos: Aaron Leitz.
