Carine Roitfeld's Home Sweet Home

Wed, 07/30/08 — 02:21:00 PM

>> We know what occupies Carine Roitfeld's closet — a wardrobe that has earned her legions of adoring fans — but what about the rest of her Parisian living space? A book Taschen published earlier this year, New Paris Interiors, features a seven-page look at the apartment she shares with her partner Christian Restoin and has used a backdrop for a few of her editorials, like in the image below.  The space is clean and surprisingly light-colored for a woman who so prefers to wear black.

I posted on TFS an article from the French Vogue (1996) about her apartment .It was entirely designed especially for her by the English architect Chipperfield.She said that while she had a pretty 'bohemian lifestyle' she liked the order and the 'freedom of mind' that the apartment's design was giving her.

If I had to move in a house like that I would carry my luggage for hundreds of miles manually, it would worth my effort.
