a peek inside: joséphine gintzburger's paris apartment

After admiring these extremely well done pops of pinks and daydreaming about moving to Paris I found myself googling Joséphine Gintzburger. Who was this woman who left me wondering how I've lived without a fuschia chair in the shape of a flower for all these years?

Sure enough, I discovered that she studied at the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne then worked for over 20 years with fashion houses such as Louis Vuitton, Armani, Céline and Christian Dior. No big deal! Her bio then goes on to say, "Passionate about architecture, art and interior design, she has recently created her own interior design agency. The contrast between German minimalism and French exuberance is Josephine’s philosophy to create unique and personal life spaces."

Um, ya. #girlcrush

But seriously, where can I find that chair?

More inside her apartment after the jump!

That kitchen makes me want to cry...the shelves stocked with all sorts of pretty tea cups, bowls and serving plates looks like it belongs in a Parisian antiques shop...stunning.

I love how white the walls are but with all the personal touches added in these rooms it doesn't feel stark or sterile like an all white house can feel sometimes. Gorgeous!

Is it too much to ask to have shelves in a kitchen stocked with so many beautiful entertaining items like Josephine? She has one impressive collection of "stuff" Love the rose chair. Thanks for sharing.
