Récamier, The Art of Parisian Elegance:
A Refined Pied à Terre

Project type: Private residence
82 sq m
Renovation, Decoration, and Turn-key service

The Parisian apartment of our Californian client is a sensory masterpiece, blending curated treasures, bespoke modern pieces, and thoughtfully composed vignettes. This Full-Service project encompassed a complete transformation, including the design of a new kitchen and bathroom, the strategic opening of walls to enhance flow, and the creation of a dining room ingeniously repurposed from a former bathroom. Despite its intimate scale, the apartment exudes character and uncompromising quality, embodying the essence of Parisian charm.

The furniture, most of which was custom-designed by Lichelle, reflects a harmonious interplay of rich, luxurious materials and understated, humble ones. This intentional juxtaposition creates an authentic, lived-in atmosphere that feels both elevated and inviting. By seamlessly blending eras and textures, the apartment transcends trends to capture the timeless spirit of a true Parisian home.

Every element was meticulously considered to deliver a turnkey sanctuary, ready for our client to enjoy. Custom-made bedding and personalized Italian table settings lend a touch of intimacy, while vintage treasures from iconic names such as Baccarat, Lalique, and Hermès were sourced with care from Les Puces de Saint-Ouen and renowned antique shops. These storied pieces, alongside bespoke furnishings, contribute layers of history, elegance, and narrative to the space.

The result is a home that celebrates Parisian artistry and craftsmanship—a sophisticated retreat that balances modernity and tradition with effortless grace.
