The city of Paris, known for its timeless charm and iconic architecture, is home to a plethora of architectural gems. Among them, Parisian lofts stand out for their unique blend of modernity and history. When it comes to renovating such a space, every detail counts to preserve the very essence of this urban heritage. It is in this spirit that Gilles Reibell, architect from the Gilles Reibell Architectures agency, set about transforming a Parisian loft, highlighting the elegance and durability of Cosentino materials.
An interior designer trained at the School of Decorative Arts in Paris, Gilles Reibell then completed his apprenticeship with a course in Architecture, allowing him to create the envelope works for his interiors. This training created in him a global vision of architecture, being able to design everything, from architecture to furniture to interiors. After working as a project manager in various companies such as Wilmotte & Associés, Christian Liaigre and India Mahdavi, Gilles Reibell ended up creating his own agency in 2002.
The reinvention of an emblematic space
Located in the heart of the City of Lights, this Parisian loft was ready to be reinvented to reflect contemporary refinement while respecting its architectural heritage. Gilles Reibell Architecture took on this challenge brilliantly by bringing a touch of modernity while preserving the authentic character of the space.
For the kitchen, the team chose Dekton Aura 22 for the worktop, island and splashbacks. This material offers a perfect combination of elegance and resistance, ideal for daily use in a demanding kitchen. Its durable surface, resistant to scratches, stains and heat, makes it a perfect choice for such a frequently used environment.
In the dining room, the table made from Dekton Kira adds a touch of elegance and sophistication. This material not only has a remarkable aesthetic appearance, but it is also scratch, UV and stain resistant, making it a practical and stylish choice for everyday use.
The Advantages of Cosentino Materials for Apartment Renovation
Renovating an urban apartment requires materials that combine beauty, durability and practicality. Cosentino products meet these criteria in an exemplary manner. Dekton, with its advanced technology and mineral composition, offers exceptional resistance to impact, stains and temperature variations, making it an ideal choice for dynamic living spaces. In addition, its personalized design possibilities allow harmonious integration into any architectural style, from the most traditional to the most contemporary.
In summary, the renovation of this Parisian loft by Gilles Reibell Architecture perfectly illustrates the harmony between modern aesthetics and historical heritage, thanks to the judicious use of Cosentino materials. With their unique combination of beauty and durability, these materials have created a space that is both functional and elegant, meeting the demands of contemporary urban living while preserving the timeless soul of the City of Lights.
