The owners of an old high-ceilinged typical parisian style workshop asked FREAKS to design a punctual living space that could evolve according to their different activities all through the day. FREAKS freearchitects turned the old workshop into a minimal and flexible flat, called La Tournette.
YOSHINORI is a gourmet restaurant located in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés just a stone’s throw away from Odéon. The space consists of two floors, a ground floor and a basement. It is characteristic of the neighborhood in which it is located and has a stone and wooden structure, visible wooden beams on the ground floor, and vaulted stone cellars in the basement.
Set as a new Parisian temple for mixology dedicated to Gin & Tonic, Tiger unfurls its wooden structure on the two levels of the venue. The staggered setting of timber weaves the bar, the staircase, the seating booth and benches as well as the counters.
The project consists of the renovation of the old painter Pierre Lemaire’s studio (1920-2007), in order to create a minimalist and bright loft in the heart of Paris. The entire existing interior design and the slab was demolished, only the load-bearing walls and the roof were preserved.
The ” Urban Cocoon ” duplex is situated in a 2 storey townhouse building on Charonne street next to Bastille.
The project is a renovation of a 70 sqm apartment in the eleventh district of Paris. The space features herringbone flooring, and maintains as much of the original structure as possible, including ceiling moldings and wall trims.
This retro-style apartment was recently completed by BäN Architecture. The apartment has an area of 67 m2 and is located not far from Canal de l’Ourcq, Paris. In this apartment, the long corridor meters have been removed to make way for an extra room in a retro-urban style.
Small yet extremely functional, this minimal Paris apartment is an inspiring design gem. Situated in Paris 10th arrondissement it has a small kitchenette, a shower, a pull-out sofa bed and a wardrobe.
