Dream House Tour: L'Appartement de Pierre Yovanovitch

Today's bad French is bought to by a dream house tour:  Pierre Yovanovich's parisian apartment in a 1905 building overlooking the Seine.  Gosh, that just oozes dream doesn't it?  Pierre Yovanovich is a talented interior designer, based in Paris, but has done beautiful residential work all over France, along with a couple of homes in Spain and the U.S.A.

he took this gutted space

and turned it into this beautifully, refined, understated apartment...

 

and just look at this view...
