The creators of Kann Design open the doors to their surprising duplex

What if we pushed the doors of a design apartment, with sleek and millimeter decoration?A dive into the past between vintage -inspired furniture mixed with Scandinavian touches and more contemporary pieces.Welcome to the ultra-light family cocoon of the creators of Kann Design.

Despite its New York loft tunes with immense picture windows that could dominate the big apple, this apartment is located in Paris. Perchée au cœur du 13e arrondissement, au 30e étage d’une tour des années 70 du quartier Olympiades, se niche une pépite hors du temps.A duplex imbued with the minimalist style of the 1950s and 60s, leaving Paris to his feet and having a clear view of the whole east of the capital.A setting with white walls with its six meters high under ceiling, ideal for highlighting some of the owners' creations or the works of art of their friends.The couple, Meghedi Simonian and Houssam Kanaan, founders of the Kann Design furniture brand, who occupies the premises with Solal, their two and a half year old son, had a real crush on this space.It only took six short weeks of decoration work to return the place to their image and impose their style.Some parts have remained all or in part in "their juice", like the kitchen and its hexagonal green tolves of origins.
Et comme pour leurs créations, le bois est le fil conducteur de ce trois pièces.It is revealed in different species, raw or painted version to discover on the parquet and furniture.An apartment punctuated by art and nature and whose watchword is not to clutter space unnecessarily, because as we know well "less is more".

The living room

With six meters high under ceiling and its all height window, the living room is bathed in light.One of the brand's flagship models, the "mid" bench, has found its place under the window, not far from the guitar corner.On the wall run three thick blond wooden shelves, dreamed support to exhibit the photos and illustrations that the couple likes both.

The Music Coin

Music and nature enthusiasts, the owners have mixed their passions.Amplifier, platinum and vinyl for Houssam plays the guitar, green plants scattered everywhere for Meghedi.We also distinguish the spiral staircase in light gray metal which allows access to the mezzanine on which are the night rooms.

The arty corner

In contrast to the music space, the couple's creations integrate perfectly into this building in the 70s.Round table and "Galta" chair are around a large photo of Mathieu Karst.To enhance an XXL work, no need for a frame, a wooden wand of the color of the wall and drawing pliers become a clever rid at a low price being forgotten.A good idea to prick.

Adjoined in the kitchen, this low storage open in the living room accommodates sober and design dishes.Also acting as a bar, this teak furniture circled in black took place under the mezzanine.And as usual, the owners mix design objects, works by artists and plants.

The kitchen-dining room

The couple installed the dining room and the kitchen in the same space.It is in this room, with their green toults of origins, that they like to meet in the evening to cook and dinner.Nature is always present that it is by green plants in a pot or on a photograph of Mathieu Karst hanging on the wall.

The library

In order to punctuate the apartment with white walls, the owners dared the color to signify the library installed in a corner of the living room.A deaf green that brings in its own way a touch of nature in this space dedicated to architectural books and magazines, punctuated by decorative objects.

As in the rest of the apartment, the furniture combines functionality and aesthetics.Hung on the wall, this wooden storage box plays the role of suspended console.Perfect for exposing works of art again and again like eucalyptus leaves in a transparent vase.

Children's room

Omnipresence of wood declined in different species and tones for Solal's room, two and a half years.Bureau for children, rocking horse and low storage rub shoulders around a large arty carpet that came to warm up the atmosphere.In a minimalist spirit, a simple wire and pliers as a curtain rod retain white sheer.

The cabin bed fits perfectly into the world of this design child's room.An illustration by Paul Thurlby representing the Molitor hotel in Paris is displayed just above a low library from the "Strat" collection from Kann Design.Low unit to children to facilitate access to books and toys as well as their storage.

Parents' room

Located on the mezzanine, the parents' room is open to the living room just below.They take advantage of the view, overlooking Paris a little more.The brick-colored ultra-structured headboard spills the immaculate room.And in the eternal idea of not overloading the places, only a few carefully chosen objects take place in the decor like the legendary Biny lamp or a photo of Rudy Bouchebel.
