Bursting with fun, quirky pieces of art and a bright colour scheme that can’t help but make you smile, this light-filled apartment in Paris’ Madeleine neighbourhood provides an exclusive postcode that’s ideal for those looking to explore the central sights or indulge in luxury retail therapy. We love the playful decor in the main living space – particularly the bold collage art – and the way these pieces are juxtaposed against industrial ones like the sleek, steel kitchenette and the wooden window-side table. The two bedrooms are pared-back and stylish and each boasts a rainfall shower to help you get mornings off to a luxurious, relaxing start. Outside of your home, the beautiful Opéra Garnier is an eight-minute walk away, the oh-so-fashionable Champs-Élysées is a fifteen-minute stroll, while the Louvre is twenty minutes away on foot.
