Recreate the Emily in Paris apartment, without moving to Paris
Ornate mouldings, herringbone floors, tall windows and a pop of red. It’s the Paris fantasy, compressed into one small room. Here’s how the look works, and how to bring that chic, playful feeling home.
“Parisian style is mostly the bones: white walls, beautiful floors, old details. Then you add one bold colour and something a little bit cheeky. That’s it.”Trisha · Your AI design guide
Five moves that make it work
White walls, beautiful bones
White walls and white mouldings, so the architecture and floor become the decoration. Even rental walls can fake this.
One bold red
A tomato-red sofa, throw or chair against all that white. One strong colour makes the whole room look confident.
Splurge, save, skip
The red sofa or chair
It is the star. Choose a small velvet sofa or armchair in a deep tomato red.
Mirrors, candlesticks and frames
Flea-market gilt and brass are the real Paris look. Buy secondhand, never new “French-style”.
Eiffel Tower everything
Prints, cushions and ornaments of landmarks. Real Paris apartments never decorate with Paris.
