The legendary style of Paris – in a modern interpretation

Paris is not just the city of French classical style, but has now also become one of the leading centres of contemporary design and modern art. This book shows how subtly architects and interior designers combine these two worlds. It takes you to elegant lofts that were once cramped apartments, inside traditional buildings of the Haussmann era, where accessories from exotic places set the scene, and to glamorous showrooms in beautifully restored city palais. Paris – c"est toujours chic!
