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.
















I had to share another new project by Sean Anderson, one that is a bit more sophisticated than his typical spaces but when you’re working with an expansive Tribeca apartment in New York I think it goes without saying that there’s an expectation to spice it up and make it classy. Contemporary but make it Sean Anderson moody. Photos: Haris Kenjar.



















For the past decade, the owners maintained this apartment as a rental property while residing in a spacious four-bedroom house with a garden. With their daughter moving out, they decided to downsize to the apartment, drawn by its convenient location and low-maintenance living. The apartment despite its narrow layout features a striking triangular kitchen island and frosted glass for natural light. It’s divided into an open-plan living area and private quarters, including a bedroom, rumpus room and study nook.

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.
