Modernist Muse

Modernist Muse: Île-de-France

This contemporary home is designed to wow – boasting plenty of natural light and Modernist designer furniture – where better to unwind in style? Nestled in Monceau, this home is perfectly suited for a couple or solo traveller looking for a design-oriented place to come home to in Paris’ 8th arrondissement.

A furniture lovers’ paradise awaits here – with a Charles & Ray Eames Shell lounge chair, Philippe Starck for Kartell Masters Chairs, a Joe Colombo Continental spherical bookcase and a host of Modernist favourites. A collection of books, lighting fixtures and artworks are highlighted by the bright white space. Enjoy leisurely breakfasts at the Knoll Saarinen Tulip table and afternoons reading on the plump natural-hued sofa. We particularly appreciate the sleek workspace – where better to hit that OOO email than from the Knoll Saarinen Tulip chair?

While you could spend the entire day relaxing in your sleek apartment, take some time to explore the city from its prime location. You're just a short walk from the Musée Jacquemart-André and Musée Nissim de Camondo, while Le Marais is a short hop on the metro.
