"I wanted to be able to see the view as soon as I walked in the front door, and enjoy it from the living room, the bedroom, everywhere in the apartment,"
"I didn't want the space to feel too small, so I removed doors that were taking up space."
"I put a bathtub in the bedroom,"
"to continue the theme of creating a hotel-like atmosphere. Now I can enjoy the view even when soaking in the tub."
Marie Stadsbader chose a rare corner Haussmann-era apartment in the Marais as a Paris pied-à-terre. The 678-square-foot space offers very high ceilings, a grand staircase, and six windows overlooking the Museum of Jewish Art and History courtyard and city rooftops. The layout was opened up to maximize views by removing doors and substituting noren-style curtains. The design follows a hotel-suite logic with a bathtub placed in the bedroom to allow soaking while enjoying the view. Walls were painted the same color as the museums façade and a restrained palette with stainless steel and mirrors was used to reflect light and add warmth.
