French fantasy over four floors
Mon, 28 Jan 2013
Oh my! Oh my! A confection of stylish French living. A family home, yes, but "effortlessly" elegant. Amazing architecture helps, as do vintage and brocante cheek to cheek with high end designer pieces, but those floors and the exposed beams! The art! The courtyard and window boxes!The boudoir with a bathing suite and scrolly shower! The children's bunk room! Exclamation mark overdose. I think I died and woke up in heaven on a Campana Brothers Boa sofa. Parisian perfection by Elodie Sire of D.mesure.

Very charming. Love the blue sofa and the outdoor room.
Campanas' boa looks sooo great in this space, it adds flair, it adds colour..Very impressive house not only because it mixes modern, vintage and rustic, but also because it is not overrestored. One of my favourites.
Looks excellent. The blue sofa simply stands out from the rest. I also liked the outdoor setting so much.
So inspired, fantastic interior design
Super beautiful and personal styling!
:)
Amazing in every aspect! Each item is exquisite and eye catching!
The light fixtures in this home are absolutely amazing!
Who lives here!?! Waauw, although the house's exterior is my favourite, to dream!
This is grand Paris living at its most dazzling, and it's real.
From floor to high ceilings ... a dream. Do they take boarders? Those floors had me gasping. I'll be back to see this one again.
so many things to swoon over... the blue velvet braided sofa... the wood cladded bunk walls... the iron gated rain shower... this is my new dream home : )
It never occurred that I might want to be, and now -- now! -- I can't be French! /sob/ It's just impossible to pull off after years of not-Frenchness! Sincerely, this is truly beyond anything imaginable. It's that French thing that is I-don't-know-what, but you can't get there from here. Not that having the monied bones to work with hurts, but even so...
Une poésie omniprésente et une belle créativité font de ce lieu une habitation d'exception ! Elle doit forcément appartenir à des gens de très bon gout et d'une grande délicatesse ! BRAVO !
Everything is absolutely exquisite. From the floors to the fixtures to the lighting, this is the ultimate in graciousness and luxury.
Incredibly beautiful. Shame they painted all the old wooden beams white though.
