From the moment you enter this African inspired apartment, you'll feel as if you've stepped into a wild safari in the middle of trendy Le Marais. This one-of-a-kind home pays homage to both an ethnic heritage and the bohemian style of the surrounding area with its vibrant artwork, sculptures, and intricate adornments curated across the home. Return from a day of sightseeing, sink into the wood and wicker furnishings and unwind with a glass of wine in the warming living room. Whip up a couple of snacks in the forest-green kitchen, or take a little afternoon snooze in the bedrooms – each decorated with its own bold personality from a feature wall of foliage to rich orca-orange tones – there's no stone left unturned at this home. Outside, the hipper-than-hip streets of Le Marais are lined with colourful buildings, classy cafés, and art galleries. Come evening, head to the Marché des Enfants Rouges – a seven-minute walk away – for laid-back dining in the oldest covered market in Paris.
