A gut renovation of a compact Parisian duplex under the roof, rebuilt as a pied-à-terre where every centimetre works. The plan opens along a single spine — kitchen, living, stair — and the attic level is given over to sleeping and light: new skylights, a glass-floored terrace and a hammock hung between the original timber posts. Storage disappears into full-height white joinery, punctuated by lit niches for a collection of objects, while a lacquered red stair and a single pink sofa carry the colour.
