sculptural paris apartment.

i discovered this paris apartment makeover at one of my favorite inspirational sites, owi. it's old meets new in the most sculptural of ways.








one thing that always stops me, that always moves me to stay creative, to stay wowed is that after reviewing the facade or outside of any space really, residential or commercial, and from that, entering into that space, where you've already made some sort of initial judgement from the outside, is that you can be completely taken by surprise at how wrong you were. i love that!
this is one of those spaces. from the outside you picture, a heavier, perhaps more victorian or antique in nature decor. but no...you are thrown off with vibrant color, unusually open spaces, uncluttered atmospheres, modern swirling lines and because of all that, because of the unexpectedness of it all, and because you were wrong, it's so much fun! enjoy...
