A Kiss of Blue, by Veeve

Despite the masterful deployment of a certain colour, this home will give you anything but the blues. A tidy artistic eye, a little bit of kook, smatterings of retro aesthetic and a cohesively curated palate keep the mood light and the atmosphere irresistibly chill. Take that goodness out into the vast and verdant Bois de Vincennes where zoos, lakes, castles and botanical gardens offer something to delight everyone in the family.

LIVING ROOM / KITCHEN
Fresh, groovy and modern, this feel-good space cheers the heart. Up-to-the-minute design, plenty of sunlight and rustles of green fill the space with life where easy comfort blends with a various, sharp-minded artistic nous. Clean whites and pale timber comprise the kitchen and dining area and with all the optimism about, you’ll be reaching for recipes you never knew you had in you.

PRINCIPAL BEDROOM
Shades of paper and graphite make up this comfortably minimalist double bedroom, pencilled in with contemporary straight lines and a choice selection of calmingly evocative art. If design is art, then this is an artist who knows when to play their hand.

BATHROOM
Swish, smart and clean, this refreshingly modern bathroom offers a waterfall shower and wash basin.

SECOND BEDROOM
A soft and shapely bunk bed (suitable for adults) brings dreamy comfort to the sky-blue refuge of this chipper little bedroom.

We Love
The much-cherished Promenade Plantée is an idyllic, elevated walkway running from the Bois de Vincennes through to the Bastille, along what used to be a 19th-century viaduct. It’s just a suggestion, but we’d say you’re perfectly placed to enjoy this magical stroll.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties. The bunk bed in the second bedroom is suitable for an adult (90x200 cm). This third floor apartment is accessible by stairs only. Although we always endeavour for accuracy, there may be rare occasions where the listing photography and description do not provide an exact representation of the home’s amenities.
