Not your grandmother's apartment

I am dying a slow death over this total gem of an apartment. It is EVERYTHING a Paris apartment should be. AND MORE. Featured on The Socialite Family you can catch all the juicy details there. If you're going to take over your grandmother's apartment and keep the tradition alive THIS is how you do it - by working with all of the jaw-dropping original architecture and adding in vintage mixed with iconic modern elements (with help from architect friend Samantha Hauvette). 

The Ploum sofa by the Bouroullec brothers is one of the coolest sofas of all time IMHO. 

Up there with the Ploum is the Togo. YAAASSSS!

Just make sure your workplace looks as cool as this office in an old studio in the Xth arrondissement in Paris. Agitateurs Graphiques by Agence Marie Deroudilhe.
