An Unforgettable Jubilee Weekend Experience
Two years ago, we visited this old textile factory that had been converted into a scrap yard. At first, it wasn’t particularly attractive. Huge pools of water on the floor and a lot of leaks. A floor covered in moss. But it had potential. 300 m2 for redesigning.
We wanted a space that was full of life, open and with a 4.8 m high ceiling. It didn’t have any outdoor space so we designed two: an entrance measuring 100 m2 and a terrace measuring 25 m2 inside the studio flat.
After 10 months of intense work, here we are: in our studio home, our happy place.
We kept the metal beams and columns and painted them in matte black. For the floor, we used aged wooden floorboards, which give it a workshop feel which goes well with the place.
White walls, all of them. Paintings, fashion photos, books on the floor. For the lounge, a large marble table made out of a piece that we found by chance at some friends’ house. Souvenirs from our travels, a whole load of candles. Vases, since I love flowers and it’s time to decorate the house a bit! Plants, a bicycle on the first floor, a black granite worktop with a leather finish, large chaises longues and comfy armchairs. The pleasure of cooking, reading, listening to and playing music. A lot of music!
Light everywhere and no other houses blocking our view. This is my studio home, my happy place.

Give a second life to your used furniture, mattresses, comforters and pillows. When you want to get rid of them, if they are in good condition, you can give them to a structure of the Social and Solidarity Economy, near your home. Otherwise, you can drop them off at the waste collection center in the dumpster dedicated to used furniture.
Collected in the Eco-mobilier skips, these products are sent to sorting centers where the materials are separated by flow (wood, scrap metal, plastic...) to be transformed into new recycled raw materials and used to manufacture other products or to be recovered in the form of energy to be used as fuel in cement plants.
