The Artist’s Abode, by Veeve

Set on the first floor of a residential building that evokes the very essence of Paris, this three-bedroom apartment in the 12th arrondissement offers the best of both worlds: relax into a space that feels like home while being a stone’s throw from the flowing Seine in one direction and Place de la Bastille in the other. With high ceilings and matching windows, watch the morning sun illuminate this distinct and distinguished Parisian abode.

LIVING ROOM AND DINING AREA
The beating heart of the apartment, this space offers charm, character and comfort. The conjoined living and lounge areas drink in the sun from large windows, shedding light on the refined décor: a neutral colour palette gives way to tasteful sculpture and a slew of bookshelves. The dining space is more refined still, offering a table for four in a stripped back atmosphere that mirrors the kitchen.

KITCHEN
The clay tones of terra cotta define this room, making for an open and welcoming workstation for budding chefs. Fitted with modern amenities, you won’t have any trouble cooking up a ratatouille in here.

BEDROOMS
The principal bedroom presents its occupants with an atmosphere that mirrors the living area: décor with Indian and Asian influences, all drenched in light from the large windows. The second bedroom features a pull-out double sofa and desk, providing versatility for those needing a quiet place to relax or work. A third room with a single bed, doubles as a functional workspace, with two additional desks set below shelves laden with books.

BATHROOM
This bathroom is special: transport yourself to North Africa for a moment with beautifully crafted Tunisian tiles adorning the walls in blue and yellow. Complete with a walk-in shower and double vanity, this space offers the best in form and function.

WE LOVE
