This industrial style townhouse is part of an old button factory in Paris. You can tell that the owners Virginie and Alfonso are artists who wanted to preserve the factory feel whilst adding vintage and eclectic finds from flea markets and antiques shops.
A very unusual home not least as they’ve built the kitchen on site – in concrete – with open shelves! A brave choice but I like how they’ve managed to combine their vintage feel with modern pieces of furniture which works surprisingly well in this converted industrial building.
The colour palette is very subdued with lots of greys, browns and olives. Even their son Leon’s bedroom has been painted in a warm olive which is an interesting choice for a kids room but blends in with the rest of the interior.
Being artists who live and work in the same place interesting pieces can be found everywhere and personally I like all the typographic elements on display, some of which are hand-made by Alfonso and some are finds from antique shops.
Clearly a designer-maker most of the furniture is also made by Alfonso, like the large dining and coffee table and his paintings are on display throughout the house. I admire their style and love their eclectic mix but personally I’d like my surroundings to be a bit more cheerful. In fact, I’ve got a great INTERIORS CRUSH coming up this Friday. Stay tuned!
What do you think of Virginie and Alfonso’s home?
