Composing a Modern Style within the Confines of an Old Pigalle Flat

HOCH, a design and structure studio primarily based in Paris and Aix-en-Provence, have not too long ago accomplished the renovation of a flat in Pigalle. Their shoppers, a younger couple, wished to compose a brand new up to date fashion throughout the present constraints of the residence’s curved partitions, ceilings and flooring, structural partitions, plumbing, and electrical methods.

After demolishing all non-essential constructions, they have been left with a big and shiny room, an open kitchen, and eating space, in addition to a sleeping space and bed room separated by metal and glass.

The lounge’s authentic hardwood flooring was restored in addition to the ceiling plaster moldings. The distinctive black and gold kitchen frames the doorway space, whereas a blue passage brings collectively the flooring, partitions, ceilings, cabinets, doorways, and cabinets.

A pink painted wall within the bed room with a sequence of mirrors gives the look of a headboard for the mattress, whereas within the rest room, the ground is handled with gentle grey waxed concrete and the bathe with an identical khaki tinted concrete.
