20 Of The Most Stylish Rooms In Paris

For a client's classic Parisian apartment, designer Jean-Louis Deniot damask, the pillows are in velvets and an African wax print fabric, the Directoire armchair is covered in a canvas, and the gilded console is Louis XVI; the Gaetano Sciolari chandelier is from the 1960s and the Moroccan rug and painted-steel wall sculpture are all custom.

This modern dining area sits in a historic Parisian apartment that was gutted and renovated to the owner's liking. The Eros marble dining table is by Angelo Mangiarotti, and the Seagull chairs and light fixture are by Arne Jacobsen.

This bold sitting area of São Paulo–based decorator Sig Bergamin's Paris pied-à-terre combines color, texture, and pattern in one cohesive, stylish space. The armchair by Carlo Colombo and a 1970s French desk are paired with a Biedermeier chair; the walls are painted in Farrow & Ball's Brinjal.

The living room in a 19th-century Parisian apartment screams glamour with its ornate detailing and gilded accents. The daybed is upholstered in a Lelievre velvet, the 1930s cocktail table was found at the Drouot auction house, and the gilt-wood mirror and marble fireplace are original to the apartment.

Nothing screams Paris quite like the combination of black and white stripes with antique-inspired metallics in this apartment in the City of Lights. The master bath's nickel-and-brass tub is 19th century, and the chair is by Honoré Paris from Galerie Yves Gastou; the wall stripes are painted.

In the worldly library of an apartment in Paris's 7th arrondissement, the 18th-century desk is English, the armchair is from Westenholz Antiques, and the desk lamp was made from a Ming vase; the Italian mirror dates to the early 1700s, the Japanese wood deity is from the Heian period, and the curtains are of a Ralph Lauren Home striped cotton.

The opulent tiles on the walls and floor of a French editor's bathroom make it the perfect oasis. The marble mosaic tiles on the walls and floor of the master bath are original to the apartment; the 19th-century Chinese-style light fixture was found at a flea market in L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue.

In the entrance room of this colorful Parisian home, the console is sheathed in leather and mussel shells, and the chaise lounge is upholstered in a Donghia fabric. The pillows and throws are made from antique Pakistani fabrics, the stool is African, the lithograph is by Jean Cortot, and the porcelain fireplace is late 19th century.

The master bedroom in furniture designer Anne-Marie Midy's bohemian haven makes great use of the apartment's layout. The bedcover and throw are by Le Monde Sauvage and the rugs are by Muskhane; the 18th-century Italian headboard belonged to Midy's grandmother, and the 20th-century French desk was her father's.
