Home tour: A bright Parisian apartment blending elegant minimalism with art

Above A cool and neutral colour palette dominates the three distinct zones in the spacious living area In the living area, which occupies a significant portion of the apartment, a cool and neutral colour palette dominates the three distinct zones–a fireplace lounge, a sofa area, and a small workspace. Further enriched with various shades of grey and wall panelling in soft hues, these design elements come together to create a serene and harmonious atmosphere that does not distract from the carefully selected pieces, perfect for relaxation and various activities.

The monochromatic theme persists in the separate kitchen and dining area, where a refined interplay of natural materials—such as brass, steel, stone, marble, and oak—enhances the sense of understated luxury. Above The reflective sculpture by John Franzen suspended above the fireplace Above Mathieu Lehanneur's biomorphic mirror reflects the surrounding space Whilst still adhering to the overarching design narrative, the three private bedrooms are rendered in warmer tones that exude a sense of comfort and intimacy for each family member. The master bedroom is imbued with beige and cream tones, whilst the children's rooms feature soft shades of powder pink and olive. Thus, creating a clear distinction between the cool, sophisticated public areas and the warm, nurturing private spaces.

'I've always admired the way French designers work with contemporary forms that remain timeless and integrate seamlessly with classic elements. So, of course, this project would be incomplete without names like Christian Liaigre, Bruno Moinard, or Mathieu Lehanneur.' Above The kitchen and dining area in a separate room Above The master bathroom furnished in natural marble Viner's expertise shines through her signature technique of composing arrangements that juxtapose various forms and materials, resulting in an interior that invites endless exploration, revealing new details with every glance.

Flanked by Liaigre's Editeur bookcases, the biomorphic mirror Le Passage by Lehanneur straddles the intersection of design, technology, science, and art–reflecting the surrounding space in a unique and poetic way.
