A duo of high-profile tastemakers invites readers inside fifteen homes that are infused with
the blend of vintage-contemporary style that is the essence of Parisian chic. Style icon Ines
de la Fressange and globetrotting dilettante Marin Montagut share a uniquely Parisian
sensibility for interiors that combine a variety of design traditions into a harmonious living
space. The authors take readers inside fifteen Parisian apartments-including their own- that
demonstrate how to imbue a home with a sense of well-being through a mix of vintage and
contemporary styles. Each owner is passionate about home decor-whether in a studio loft or
duplex-and they continually evolve their interior with new treasures uncovered in flea markets
on their travels at design fairs or in artisanal workshops. Natural materials-wood wicker
bamboo cotton and linen-create warmth and personality. Vintage suitcases vegetable crates
and jewel- toned pharmaceutical jars transform into charming storage containers. Embroidered
cushions terrariums and fresh flowers enliven a room with pops of color. Collages original
art or humble objects displayed in a series add a signature style to each residence. With
extensive photographs watercolor illustrations and practical advice on the indispensable
objects that incarnate each maison this exquisite volume is rich in inspiration for creating
Parisian chic at home.
