Parisian designer Marianne Evennou has a way with small spaces—and with color. In her renovation projects, Evennou implements creative solutions from interior windows and partitions to thoughtful storage alongside an unexpected but uniquely Parisian palette. In the recent reorganization and renovation of a 968-square-foot apartment, Evennous’s solution for the small kitchen space is complete with with Moroccan tiles, French rattan, retro-inspired appliances, and more. Here we dissect the key elements to recreate the look.
