This interior represents a magnificent example of modern urban chic with elements of classic French decor. The living room-office space harmoniously combines the classical architecture of a Parisian apartment with contemporary furniture and accessories.
The original fireplace with its richly decorated white portal and mirror in an exquisite molded frame adds special expressiveness to the space. Above it hangs a minimalist black chandelier in the shape of an opening flower, creating an interesting contrast with the classic stucco ceiling cornice and rosette.
The color palette is based on restrained gray wall tones, which serve as a perfect background for turquoise accents (armchair and table lamp). Wooden furniture with a warm hue adds coziness to the space. The combination of textures is noteworthy: soft textiles of the sofa and armchair, glossy surfaces of decor, rough texture of the carpet, and the classic herringbone parquet.
The functional zoning of the space is masterfully executed: a relaxation area with a sofa and armchair, a workspace by the window with a writing desk, and storage systems in the form of a modular shelving unit. The black and white forest photograph on the wall adds depth to the room and echoes the black decor elements.
Such interior design can certainly be used as a source of inspiration when designing a country house interior, especially if you appreciate the combination of classical architectural elements with modern functionality. Ceiling moldings, an elegant fireplace, and tall windows with draperies can become wonderful accents in a country space, while the combination of gray walls with bright accents will create a modern yet cozy atmosphere.
