Sous les toits de Paris, l'élégance

Anne Chemineau - Decor Interieur

Le projet : D’anciennes chambres de services sous les toits réunies en appartement locatif vont connaître une troisième vie avec une ultime transformation en pied-à-terre parisien haut de gamme. Notre solution : Nous avons commencé par ouvrir l’ancienne cloison entre le salon et la cuisine afin de bénéficier d’une belle pièce à vivre donnant sur les toits avec ses 3 fenêtres. Un îlot central en marbre blanc intègre une table de cuisson avec hotte intégrée. Nous le prolongeons par une table en noyer massif accueillant 6 personnes. L’équipe imagine une cuisine tout en linéaire noire mat avec poignées et robinetterie laiton. Le noir sera le fil conducteur du projet par petites touches, sur les boiseries notamment. Sur le mur faisant face à la cuisine, nous agençons une bibliothèque sur mesure peinte en bleu grisé avec TV murale et un joli décor en papier-peint en fond de mur. Les anciens radiateurs sont habillés de cache radiateurs menuisés qui servent d’assises supplémentaires au salon, en complément d’un grand canapé convertible très confortable, jaune moutarde. Nous intégrons la climatisation à ce projet et la dissimulons dans les faux plafonds. Une porte vitrée en métal noir vient isoler l’espace nuit de l’espace à vivre et ferme le long couloir desservant les deux chambres. Ce couloir est entièrement décoré avec un papier graphique bleu grisé, posé au dessus d’une moulure noire qui démarre depuis l’entrée, traverse le salon et se poursuit jusqu’à la salle de bains. Nous repensons intégralement la chambre parentale afin de l’agrandir. Comment ? En supprimant l’ancienne salle de bains qui empiétait sur la moitié de la pièce. Ainsi, la chambre bénéficie d’un grand espace avec dressing ainsi que d’un espace bureau et d’un lit king size, comme à l’hôtel. Un superbe papier-peint texturé et abstrait habille le mur en tête de lit avec des luminaires design. Des rideaux occultants sur mesure permettent d’obscurcir la pièce, car les fenêtres sous toits ne bénéficient pas de volets. Nous avons également agrandie la deuxième chambrée supprimant un ancien placard accessible depuis le couloir. Nous le remplaçons par un ensemble menuisé sur mesure qui permet d’intégrer dressing, rangements fermés et un espace bureau en niche ouverte. Toute la chambre est peinte dans un joli bleu profond. La salle de bains d’origine étant supprimée, le nouveau projet intègre une salle de douche sur une partie du couloir et de la chambre parentale, à l’emplacement des anciens WC placés à l’extrémité de l’appartement. Un carrelage chic en marbre blanc recouvre sol et murs pour donner un maximum de clarté à la pièce, en contraste avec le meuble vasque, radiateur et robinetteries en noir mat. Une grande douche à l’italienne vient se substituer à l’ancienne baignoire. Des placards sur mesure discrets dissimulent lave-linge, sèche-linge et autres accessoires de toilette. Le style : Elégance, chic, confort et sobriété sont les grandes lignes directrices de cet appartement qui joue avec les codes du luxe… en toute simplicité. Ce qui fait de ce lieu, en définitive, un appartement très cosy. Chaque détail est étudié jusqu’aux poignées de portes en laiton qui contrastent avec les boiseries noires, que l’on retrouve en fil conducteur sur tout le projet, des plinthes aux portes. Le mobilier en noyer ajoute une touche de chaleur. Un grand canapé jaune moutarde s’accorde parfaitement au noir et aux bleus gris présents sur la bibliothèque, les parties basses des murs et dans le couloir.

Living Room Design Photos with Wallpaper

A living room, often referred to as a lounge room in Australia and New Zealand, is the hub of the home. If you only have one living room in the house, it’s likely to serve multiple purposes: be it a place to watch TV, play games, spend quality time with family or hang out with friends. If you have the luxury of two living areas, one is usually a formal living room or lounge room, reserved for reading, relaxing and entertaining. A successful living room design is inviting, has enough seating for the whole clan – a comfortable couch is a must – and encourages conversation. Browse photos on Houzz for living room layouts, furniture and decor, and strike up a conversation with the interior designers or architects of your favourite picks. For even more living room ideas, check out the Stories section on Houzz.

Which living room layouts will work best for you?

Every living area will have design challenges. A long, narrow lounge room, for example, risks looking like a hallway if furniture is lined up against the walls. Instead, opt for small furniture items, like a cosy two-seater couch, and create various focal points throughout the space. In square living rooms, a symmetrical layout encourages a formal setting. Place seating on either side of the room, with a focal point in the middle to pull the room together. For a truly intimate vibe, replace your couch with some occasional chairs positioned around a coffee table or ottoman. This will make the main focus conversation. An open-plan home – one where the lines are blurred between kitchen, dining and living – may require a layout that focuses on definition. You’ll want to make sure furniture doesn’t block the flow between spaces, and instead use something like an area rug to create zones.

How can you decorate your living room?

The living room can be a place in which to show off your personality, but if you want a timeless living room scheme, stick to neutral walls, couches and ottomans. Colour can be added through accessories, and is a lot more interchangeable! Rugs, cushions and throws are great for adding colour, while mirrors, lamps and ceiling lights will set the mood. Make your living room unique by including family heirlooms and photos. For a polished look, try creating a coffee table vignette – you could use books as pedestals or group items together on a tray. Try adding a vase, a mixture of round and rectangular objects and some books.

What are some small living room ideas?

Small living room designs can be tricky to work with, but aren’t doomed to fail. Often, you just have to get creative with furniture. An open-back chaise can create a sense of spaciousness, while small side tables paired together can substitute a coffee table. Even better, an ottoman can be used as a footrest, coffee table or extra seating. Big furniture items like the couch are best kept in light colours, and if there’s room for a coffee table, a glass-top one is best. If you have two spaces in one – perhaps your living room sits in front of a single-wall kitchen – make sure they are connected by decor, colour and style. For definition, just add area rugs, or use your couch as a dividing wall. It’s worth having a few furniture pieces, whether a bookshelf, couch or entertainment unit, in the same colour as the walls, too, so they blend into the room and visually expand the space.

Is open-plan living for you?

Today’s homes often embrace open-plan living, whereby the living room runs off the kitchen and/or dining areas. Open-plan living allows greater functionality, but can risk creating a vast, soulless space if not done right. To avoid a cavernous feel in an open-plan design, define areas with furniture, rugs and lighting, or consider using a wall divider. Also be sure to keep flooring, lighting and materials consistent throughout, for cohesiveness. Noise may be an issue – someone banging pots and pans while you’re watching TV, for example – so include lots of soft furnishings, such as rugs, curtains and couches to help absorb the noise. You will also need to factor in plenty of storage, so mess is kept at bay.
