Vivid, Vivace, by Veeve

How do you make a swanky Parisian pad even more sophisticated? Add a sleek grand piano to the mix... Nestled between Parc Georges Brassens and the verdant sprawl of Parc André Citroën, and set back slightly from the more touristy pockets of the city in Paris's family-friendly 15th; this two-bedroom apartment affords a little welcome calm to counterbalance the excitement of your trip. Speeding back into the action is easy too, with Porte de Versailles just minutes away.

LIVING & DINING ROOM
Fresh interiors and an abundance of light are offset by the warm notes that polished parquet floor and rich accents lend. There's a comfy seating area (complete with a rather swish TV) on one side, and a classically styled dining area opposite, where soft lighting and a beautifully embellished fireplace create an ambient spot to enjoy a meal.

KITCHEN
A sleek, modern kitchen with a generous amount of space to cook in, and a handy breakfast bar for grabbing a quick bite.

PRINCIPAL BEDROOM
Simple but stylish is the secret to this bedroom. You'll find ample storage space, along with charming courtyard views and a little dressing table.

BATHROOM
A slick of red is sometimes all you need...plus a roomy walk-in shower, single wash basin and WC.

SECOND BEDROOM
Another airy, courtyard-facing bedroom, with a handy desk spot and ensuite.

ENSUITE
Uniting clean lines and granite interiors, it's equipped with a walk-in shower, single wash basin and WC.

We love...
To turn the elegance up a notch, make sure you travel with a pianist so that someone can serenade you over dinner.
