Laurent had an unforeseen trip to Germany which meant that he had to leave his key with instructions at his office studio. The location was nearby his house, the instructions were clear so in a fast and elegant way, despite my big luggage, I could soon enter his apartment also thanks to the elevator. The apartment is light, spacious and minimally furnished and the view over Paris is unique. I experienced it as a peaceful haven, in an overall hectic city. The room is filled with interesting art and design books which also reflect the person that Laurent is. Besides being a most hospitable host.
