AFTER BACH | A VINTAGE COLLECTOR'S APARTMENT IN PARIS THAT COMBINES ART AND DESIGN

Сonsectetur adipiscing elite, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua enim ad veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut.

The Paris-based interior design studio AFTER BACH was founded by Jessica Berguig, owner of JAG Gallery, and Francesco Balzano, a limited edition items and furniture designer, in 2020, has been known for its bespoke, distinctive projects that stand out for their quality, full of detail, deep materiality and simple elegance。 For their latest project, a collector's apartment in a historic building on Place Dauphin, the duo's inspiration is more than typical Paris — the property offers views of the picturesque squares at the top of the Seine and the Seine — such as Cy Twombly's apartment in Rome, paintings by Bartis and music by Keith Jarrett. The result: Art, design, and architecture cleverly blend together to create a calm, welcoming indoor environment.


Like the typical 17th century building it occupies, the social area of the apartment forms a long longitudinal column, including the front hall, living room, restaurant and kitchen. Signified by the rhythmic sequence of high drop windows overlooking the River Seine, as mirrored niches at the ends add fantastic quality to the space experience, the arched niches that make up the kitchen breakfast corner are a theme that reappears throughout the enfilade through arched niches, recesses and fireplace openings, further added The rhythm of the project is harmonious. On the other side of the apartment, the master bedroom has a beautiful view of Dauphin Square, and the en suite bathroom comes with an overall stone bathtub that appears to have grown out of the stone floor and a matching stone washbasin.


To improve the quality of natural light entering the apartment, the designers adopted a soothing palette of ivory, beige and light green tones inspired by the surrounding cityscape — the green lacquerware fine carpentry and green painted ceilings correspond to the tones of the Seine River, while the lime plaster, stone and fabric like dental and beige tones Reflecting the typical milky gray limestone in the structure of the French capital city. The soft tones of the interior design extend to a selection of carefully selected retro and modern furniture and items for two people for the project. These pieces lack color, but they not only make up for personality but also infuse the space with a sense of sculpture and craftsmanship.


From the modernist armchairs designed by Italian designer Paolo Buffa in the 1950s, to the Stag T side table in black plywood and elk horns by Rick Owens, to the matt glazed pressed ceramic stools designed by Amsterdam designer Floris Wubben for Berguig's JAG gallery. Because of their shared craftsmanship and the fun of improv play, they successfully form a harmonious ensemble that is no different from a good jazz conference if Bach's post-"architecture is music” spirit acceptable — after all, the studio is staffed by pianist Brad Mehr It is no coincidence that the name of a jazz album by Ldau is inspired by Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.
