The Parisian Vie en Rouge

In the heart of Paris, a small studio stands as an architectural poem, where every detail dances to the rhythm of passionate and decisive shades of red.

At the entrance, a spacious square-shaped area welcomes with light colors and wooden profiles, serving as a large wardrobe supporting both function and a library. The entrance doors, in harmony with the style of the cabinets, promise a complete immersion into the environment.

Once beyond the threshold into the living area, an unexpected panorama unfolds before the observer. Soft shapes and vibrant colors paint the picture, with an essential kitchen reflecting in a glossy, gray-shaped door, providing access to a clean and geometric bathroom. Wall-mounted cabinets, invisible behind a mirror, reveal the ingenious utilization of space.

The curves of the kitchen and bathroom door gracefully align with a rounded black iron table, embracing the pillar on two sides while remaining airy and light. The living area, with red cabinets and pink interiors, harmoniously merges with textured gray walls on a floor with rosy tones, interrupted by a full-height curtain in dusty blue.

This curtain, like a stage curtain, divides a hybrid environment that combines the living and sleeping areas, characterized by a long niche sofa, a comfortable and tranquil refuge. Pull-out low drawers and upper cabinets with folding doors, a subtle nod to concealed organization, create visual harmony. The contrast of an indigo blue sofa, transformable into a bed, complements the satin steel element, resembling a shield amid a carpet of roses, providing a distinctive textural contrast to the room. Closing the curtain transforms the sleeping area into an intimate and obscured space, offering an atmosphere of total privacy.
