The staircase in the top picture without any handrails is as dramatic as it was intended in this Paris apartment. One would hope only for visual drama, rather than another flight of fancy. The dining area beneath it is dual purpose; when not used for dining it doubles as an elegant hallway, with the front door, and the entrance to the sitting room on the left hand side.
The main sitting room is an exercise in artful eclecticism, providing an exquisite backdrop for an array of carefully chosen and unusual artifacts.
With muted colour tones throughout, drawn only occasionally away by the orange of an armchair, the entire effect is charmingly pleasing, and the most suitable for the enjoyment of the collection.
