I just read the article
High-Wire Act by Dana Thomas from Elle Decor Magazine. This article features the Parisian loft apartment of French Fashion Designer Yvan Mispelaere that was once a school for acrobats. This loft is 1700 sq ft of luxury and a mixture of vintage and modern time periods. He has incorporated pieces and design inspiration anywhere from an Italian 1950s dining table to the guest room's custom-made cabinetry that was inspired by Giorgio de Chirico, a 1970s plaster speaker. Below you will see the pictures taken from the loft and the great mix of time periods.
It goes without saying, that interior design in the 21st century, has become an eclectic mix of decades of furniture and accessories that inspire and seduce the senses.

Mispelaere designed the bedcover in the master bedroom, the floor is paved with custom-made painted wood tiles, and a two-way mirror on the back wall offers a view of the dining area below.

The living room of fashion designer Yvan Mispelaere's Paris apartment, which he designed with architect Stéphane Ghestem, the sofas are by Zanotta, the 1970s light fixtures were found in Florence and costomized with brass accents, the Art Deco mirror screen came from a paris flea market, the brass-and-glass cocktail tables are vintage, and the marble sculpture by Venske & Spänle was purchased at the Hong Kong International Art Fair.
The staircase is painted concrete, the glassware collection is vintage, and the brass chair is from the 1960s; Mispelaere designed both the Brancusi-inspired hand-carved stacked stools and the trompe l'oeil "tile" wood-and-cork inspiration board in the office beyond.

The guest room's custom-made cabinetry was inspired by Giorgio de Chirico, a 1970s plaster speaker adds another Surrealist element, and the wall is painted in a blue by Dulux Valentine.
The tilework in the master bath is a mix of standard white squares and Mispelaere's Peep Show tiles.
The kitchen is hidden behind a black-walled, three-sided cube, and Ross Lovegrove Landscape chairs surround an Italian 1950s dining table expanded with Corian; the brass vases were made from unused World War I mortar shells.
