Inside� Sacha Walckhoff�s apartment

Sacha Walckhoff�s apartment is undeniably one of a kind! Mixing artfully the Arabian Nights� d�cor with a very pure Scandinavian design, the creative director of Christian Lacroix has managed to mix and match different styles beautifully. A quick guided tour:

Living Room



We love:
  • The painting inside the chimney;
  • The eclectic style and the feeling you�re in a (chic) bazar;
  • The big blue fan at the end of the room (by Maarten Baas).


Corridor


Curiosity Cabinet style

We love:
  • The big Zebra;
  • The pyramid of books and magazine framing the entrance;
  • The eclectic style (again), in-between a design store and a curiosity cabinet.


The office

We love:
  • The big sculpture;
  • The black and white theme (with a touch of red);
  • The lines and curves.


Bedroom

  • The pieces of art facing one another.


Bathroom


grey and orange bathroom

We love:
  • The grey background with orange details;
  • The chair;
  • The engraving of course!



Frames

  • Art and photography.

Trend: �duck blue� is the season�s color


�Duck blue� is a literal translation from the French �bleu canard�. Although you can say �pigeon blue� and �peacock blue� in English, none of them is quite like the duck blue, which is the color this year. It is everywhere this season: on walls, on armchairs and on fabrics, the whole house is dressed in blue! It goes from turquoise to dark green, but we can still pick a trend�

Why call it 'duck blue': the origins







NB: if you want to paint your walls in duck blue, better do just one side of the room rather than the whole room, unless your room has very good lighting. Try also to pick a shade that is not too dark and prefer it matt than shiny (I�ve been there�).
