Paris 8th District – A Remarkable Art Nouveau Apartment

This remarkable apartment is on the first floor of a magnificent private mansion designed by renowned architect Jules Lavirotte, constructed in 1907 and subsequently extended with the addition of five further floors. The architect was assisted by Léon Binet and Dondelinger who respectively created the sculptures and the wrought iron. It took two and a half years for a duo of renowned Italian architects who worked for many years with Mongiardino to transform the former music room into a luxurious 160 sqm split-level apartment. This remarkable reconstitution in the pure Art Nouveau style (1890-1910) features curved lines, and a decorative style inspired by nature and boasting scrolls, arabesques, plant motifs and undulating forms…All of the exquisitely refined decorative elements bear witness to the short-lived yet unforgettable Art Nouveau style.
Inspired by Victor Horta’s residence in Brussels, the apartment’s entrance hall leads to one side onto a majestic and extensively glazed living room/library featuring a 6-metre high ceiling, and to the other side onto a dining room featuring opaque glass, a kitchen, and a guest bedroom with a shower room. A landing with a study area overlooks the reception room and leads to a master suite with a magnificent “Liberty” bed as well as exceptional turn-of-the-century decorative objects, a bathroom in shades of cream and burgundy, and a dressing room.
A stunning and unique pied a terre.
