In The 6th Arrondissement, By The Notre Dame Des Champs Metro Station, An Apartment Designed

In the 6th arrondissement, by the Notre-Dame-des-Champs metro station, an apartment designed for entertaining in a Haussmann-style building. The building occupies the corner of boulevard Raspail and rue Stanislas, and its grandeur is characteristic of the great Parisian architecture of the turn of the 20th century. Built of dressed stone, it presents a harmonious post-Haussmann facade that expresses an era in which geometric rigour softened into carved detail of a more organic, flowing character. On the first level, which the apartment occupies, the windows rest on carved consoles. Past the double wooden door, surmounted by a carved muse’s head, the communal areas carry the sense of harmony through. Generous proportions distinguish the entrance hall, its floor paved in chequerboard marble, and a lift set within the stairwell rises through the building. The apartment’s own entrance hall is spacious and opens directly onto a double living room of over 50 m². Chevron oak parquet covers the floor. Two grey-marble fireplaces face one another beneath their trumeau mirrors, and the original mouldings still adorn the ceiling. The kitchen adjoins the main room on one side and opens off the entrance hall on the other. Both bedrooms look onto the courtyard and share a spacious bathroom; the lavatory is separate. A recent condensing boiler provides the heating, and a cellar completes the apartment.
