Living Etc UK – September 2019

home truths

FRANCOIS AND VERONIQUE,

WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO?

James Blake’s latest album is top of

our current soundtracks.

BEST THING YOU’VE BOUGHT?

Our apartment, which also doubles as our office for

14 colleagues; it’s transformed our lives.

SECRET CORNER OF PARIS?

The gardens of the Quai Branly Museum; it’s a great

place to walk and have a drink looking on to the

Eiffel Tower, hearing nothing but the birds.

WHERE DO YOU RECHARGE?

Le Touquet, where we were both born. Our families still

live there and we try to go twice a month.

WHAT’S IN YOUR FRIDGE?

Cheese and eggs; we’ve got lots of great food shops

nearby so we tend to buy what we need on a daily basis.

HALLWAY

The bold, graphic contrasts

seen throughout the apartment

reflect owners Henri and Aurore’s

love of colour and ‘playfulness’.

DRESSING ROOM

This space contains the new

spiral staircase, which was

designed to connect the main

part of the apartment to the

renovated attic space.
