This 92m² apartment in Paris’s 18th arrondissement required a complete redesign, especially relocating the kitchen to create a third bedroom. Murs & Merveilles crafted a vibrant, retro-inspired space with meticulous attention to detail, from materials to lighting. The entrance sets the tone with a mix of vintage and contemporary styles, including custom joinery and a brass-accented bench. The bicolor kitchen opens into a light-filled living area with a calming oak and green glass contrast. Throughout, thoughtful design choices create a warm, inviting atmosphere, blending bold colours, vintage touches and custom elements in every room.

I wanted to share another fabulous apartment by Tristan Domecq that caught my eye. This one has a bit of a mystical, dream-like quality of understated elegance as Tristan does, with some random unexpected pieces here and there (like the “fat lava” MCM lamp in the second photo). That fireplace, the moldings throughout, arched doors and that kitchen island all help make this spectacular.
Painted white throughout by the previous owner, this apartment had been stripped of all of its original features. The brief was to redesign the entire apartment, including a new kitchen, to create a practical family space that felt comfortable, rich and with character. Guided by the building’s architecture, Max embellished the drawing room with sixteenth-century style panelling, dark painted floorboards and a corner chimney piece. The client was also keen to inject warmth and colour, which was achieved by layering richly coloured paint and wallpaper with sumptuous fabrics and a mix of antique and Max Rollitt Bespoke furniture.
This apartment designed by Max Rollitt has just the right amount of elegance and comfort and country charm. The colours in the kitchen are so delicious I would be quite happy spending hours in there cooking. Photos: Simon Brown.
