Style
and decoration of the apartment
As the building where
the apartment is was designed to host the officers from the French Colonial army
and their families (the military school is 100m from here) and some noble
construction materials was used. We have decided to protect this past and offer
to you a piece of real Paris from 1870.
During the renewal works 3 construction
elements was decided to be highlighted.
All three are
original 19 century components of the apartment
a)
The Oak on the
floor
b)
The Brick on the
ceramic floor and kitchen walls
c)
The Sand Stone
from the main wall of the room.
Two of these elements was dismounted (oak floor, brick ceramic) then renewed and remounted back. Two pieces of original walls was cleaned from the plaster to display the original construction elements.
We had to complete it with some modern materials but we used only natural stone and wood : red and coffee marble in the bathroom, mounted according to 19 century techniques, to link with the sand stone and the brick , several types of colonial oak to link with the oak floor and the colonial history. The furniture was also carefully selected for your pleaser and the colonial style. Even the porcelain and the shower tap (covered with fine gold) are from this colonial period (good copies)
There is also a 2m
high Bamboo tree in a small marble stone garden to remind these dolce vita
times.
The equipment is all modern and high-tech : computer driven, induction
hotplates to make high level kitchen, TV with MP3, DVD and CD reader,
sophisticated micro-waves combined with grill and oven... You can also have a
phone and internet access (on demand).
Just come and enjoy.
