Le salon mêle matériaux bruts et mobilier design. Le sous-bassement en béton, formant les premières marches de l’escalier et la base du foyer, apporte une touche industrielle. L’escalier en métal d’un seul tenant, avec marches et contremarches posées sur un IPN apparent, crée légèreté et fluidité. Le bois clair, le métal des luminaires et le canapé vert aux formes organiques apportent chaleur et confort, complétés par un coin lecture, plantes et objets décoratifs soigneusement choisis.

The feature double-sided fireplace features a concrete base with a bevelled edge, creating the illusion of a floating platform.
