We know how much I love classic Parisian interiors, so, of course, this apartment by the design team Gilles & Boissier gets the Sukio seal of approval. The designers used a perfect shade of white to showcase original architectural details as well as their extensive photography collection (which looks especially awesome layered atop ornate mirrors).

Another striking feature includes herringbone floors that prove natural wood can look amazingly modern. I tend to like high shine, but I’m completely sold on this unfinished look!
