프랑스 디자이너의 감각적인 빈티지 가구와 소품, 이제 하우스는 시간여행을 준비한다.
A far cry from minimalism, the renovated 900-square-foot Paris flat belonging to Nicolas Roche, a scion of the French furniture company Roche Bobois, is decked out with vivid hues and vintage furniture. A 1960s orange lamp by Luxus is suspended over the Warren Platner dining table and chairs. The 1950s rosewood glass cabinet is from Soriano. Pod Lens pendants by Ross Lovegrove for Luceplan hang from the ceiling.
An architect by profession, Roche removed as many partitions as he could when recasting the apartment’s interior, preferring transparency. He custom-made the red room divider from bungee cords.
On his patio are a table and chairs from the 1968 Ozoo collection by Marc Berthier for Roche Bobois.
The metal-topped side table is from Roche’s grandparents’ house and the lamp is vintage Vico Magistretti for Artemide.
The living room features an Equation sofa and Bi-Pod stool, both from Roche Bobois, atop a 1970s Siberian wolf carpet. Through online sleuthing, Roche found the red Boris Tabacoff chair at an Austrian gallery. The chandelier is vintage. Roche’s most-recent acquisitions include the traditional African masks, which he likes for their “aesthetic purity, the beauty of their forms.”
A ladder leads to a guest room in the attic. The striking-blue bedroom dresser was part of a modular storage system installed by the previous owner.
Antique tea and chocolate pots are juxtaposed with a 1930s painting by Jacques Villon, Marcel Duchamp’s brother.
Roche found his suede-covered bed at a Belgian flea market. Roche’s grandfather commissioned the screen, which has a black-and-white maple-leaf motif, in the 1950s.
