Posted on Tue, 5 Aug 2025 by midcenturyjo

In this 217 m² Parisian apartment, Heju reinterpreted Haussmannian tradition with bold forms and organic design. A sweeping built-in unit runs through the space, shifting from entry storage to bookshelf, kitchen cabinetry, and even hiding the master suite entrance. Nordic elements appear in the Douglas pine and Calacatta Viola marble kitchen, while soft arches and curved volumes shape the guest room and bathrooms. The main suite offers a calming palette, sculptural detailing and a sense of playful elegance.
