A diamond in the rough finds its sparkle

Many clients have a hard time seeing the gem hidden beneath grass wall paper and years of neglect. Not so with Pam and Scott of Silicon Valley, California. Our clients came to town with a vision of their Paris: “We had visited Paris for years as tourists, and always felt welcomed.”  Pam, an interior designer, was inspired by the property we found for them in the 7th.  A coveted Eiffel Tower view and good bones convinced her that the apartment had something special.  We agree.

The kitchen was widened and fitted with elements that blend old and new.
