Greatest Hits 2022: Steal This Look: The New Parisian Apartment Bedroom

December 27, 2022

We recently featured the new Second Residence, a showcase apartment from cult lifestyle store Merci, located in an 18th-century building in the Latin Quarter of Paris. Former creative director Jules Mesny-Deschamps worked with Reka Magyar, the store’s head of style, to create the artful mix-and-match look. Here, we dissect the key elements of the bedroom:
