Art-deco apartment renovation in Nantes
106 m² of Art-deco from the 1930s — generous volumes, rare ceiling heights, a period parquet that deserved better than to be covered over. Before intervening, we took the time to read the space, to understand what it was in order to decide what it could become.
Restoring the original parquet was our first move — bringing it back to life rather than replacing it, restoring its nobility without betraying its authenticity. In the same spirit, we opened the spaces: removing unnecessary partitions, letting light circulate, giving the apartment its true sense of breath.
Bespoke furniture completed this vision: pieces designed to sit within the Art-deco geometry while bringing the comfort and functionality of today. Electrical upgrades, thermal and acoustic insulation — everything that cannot be seen, but can be felt. A period apartment fully adapted to contemporary life.
