A distinct aesthetic

December 9, 2019

Located in the picturesque area of Saint Germain, Paris, this elegant residence desiged by My Pick One has an enigmatic aura and pleasant motifs that allow the design to boast unparalleled Parisian charm.


Not only is Saint Germain a popular tourist spot, but it also holds much cultural and historical significance, making it one of the main reasons people visit. Because of the area’s importance, the residence needed to represent a critical essence of French culture.

This fabulous apartment seamlessly merges classical elements with enchanting features from contemporary residential style. It contains all the fundamentals for a lavish lifestyle. Just like the posh and vintage shops that line the streets of Saint Germain, the apartments have a familiar European essence.


The design team took surrounding construction, materials, and color palettes into careful consideration. To emulate the complex mixture of European luxury and subtlety, they relied on hues such as beige, red, black, brown, and white. However, they still made varied contrasts throughout the space. This retains modernistic individuality, without compromising on timeless sophistication.
The aim was to align the interior design with the surrounding areas in a way that would address its locational gravitas. Nevertheless, design is nothing if adapted to the changing times, which explains the eclectic mix with concepts of modern minimalism.


The living rooms in the duplex apartments have white walls, which appear as a stunning backdrop against classic motifs. Some of them also feature accessories like chandeliers that enhance the beauty of French interior. In terms of décor, the goals were to keep things minimal, but at the same time, make sure that the statement pieces were of an exclusive nature.


For the bathrooms and bedrooms, My Pick One balanced an attitude of extravagance with one of simplicity. Since these spaces are so intimate to the people inhabiting them, they didn’t want to go over the top with color palettes, contrasts, and décor. Instead, they stuck to muted tones and simple lines. This was all part of the plan to make these private spaces seem like a canvas that could be painted with the inhabitant’s perspective of ‘home.’ Of course, this also makes the duplex more functional from a modern perspective. Led by Marianna Piccolo, the team in charge of executing captivating interiors created the spatial designs for this apartment.


This project maintains a unique combination of modern function and classical French grace. In the heart of Paris, nestled between quaint shops and homes, in close proximity to a significant historical landmark, Saint Germain, the firm is proud to have embodied the spirit of Parisian luxury through interior design.
