Housed in a lovely and prestigious 19th century building on the rue de Verneuil, this one-bedroom pied-a-terre has been designed with obsessive attention to detail. A harmonious blend of the charm of old and the sleekness of new is successfully achieved. A chic, well-appointed, white lacquer kitchen rests on a beautiful old "parquet de Versailles" floor. Perfectly restored, smooth plaster walls frame the original wood wall beams. The overall feeling is sophisticated and beautiful.

Old school glamor home library. Statement bookcase to display old classics. The tones are all sepia, making this room very "old money" and sophisticated.

Entry Niche Tibetan scroll painting (gold leaf-highlighted canvas on embroidery) above repurposed Tibetan scripture chest provide a dramatic yet attractive focal point to entry area. Flowers pick up on the softer colors of the artwork. The round rug, which repeats the spherical shape of the bronze finished accent pieces on the chest and the arc of the Asian lamp, harmonizes the entire arrangement.
