What are the main features of the French style? The base that appears in every interior with this style includes open space, high ceilings and richly decorated stucco, moldings, and cornices. The parquet arranged in a herringbone pattern and wooden windows divided by bolections as well as monochrome colors in shades of white, beige, and light gray are also characteristic. This elegant stylistic foundation recalls the finishes of the past centuries. However, the French style in the interiors captivates with a variety of forms and references. The subdued color palette on the walls and the floor is a perfect background for a sofa or armchair in for example bottle green, navy blue, anthracite or covered with patterned upholstery.
In a Paris apartment, we can focus on both antiques and contemporary furniture. A forged coffee table, a minimalist bedside lamp, and a beautiful rug with colorful ornaments? Why not! Contemporary graphics, posters, or original works of art in decorative, gilded frames? The choice is ours. The marble top will perfectly harmonize with the restored oak chest of drawers and the gray earhook "borrowed" from the Scandinavian interior.
Window joinery is one of the hallmarks of the Paris style. Large, decorated windows of French tenement houses decorate a living room or a bedroom by themselves. The glazing with divisions is characteristic. Of course, traditional windows were made of wood, and the bolection bars used were a structural element.
Eko-Okna offers wooden profiles with excellent insulation parameters. You don't have to choose between aesthetics and functionality. Modern wooden window joinery retains heat in the building and reduces energy consumption for heating the interior. Optional decorations and bolections in various variants will give the windows an elegant look.
Let's choose gilded accessories, a decorative chandelier adjusted to the height of the room and appropriate furniture. A restored armchair, a sofa on legs or an antique chest of drawers combined with a light glass table will create the atmosphere of an apartment on the Seine - on the Vistula River.
