In an elegant backdrop
that honours the spirit of
the Belle Epoque era and the historic soul of the apartment, the herringbone oak parquet flooring, white gypsum moulding and panelling, and black and brass frames embody Missir’s will to nurture a sense of peace. These carefully curated materials collectively create a perfectly balanced atmosphere. “It is essential to transform
a house into a home at every level,” Missir says.
Pieces of furniture by Pierre Jeanneret, Martin Szekely,
Pierre Guariche, Pierre Paulin, Robert Mathieu, Joschua Brunn and Ron Arad complement artworks by Agostino Bonalumi, Enrico Castellani, Glenn Ligon, Raymond Pettibon, Andy Warhol, Cassandra MacLeod, Gilbert & George, Richard Prince and Paul McCarthy.
“The history of styles inspires me; I like to rewrite them my way, with a twist of minimalism and fancy,” Missir says. “I love the notion of mixing pieces. I did not buy these particular pieces for this particular apartment; I have collected them from many different places and over a long duration of time.”
