Power pastels: how to work soft colours with sophistication

Sitting pretty above department store Marie Sixtine in the heart of Paris is Chez Marie Sixtine, this cosy, Parisian suite demonstrates the right combination of dusty, muted pastels and luxe finishes can be both grown-up and understated.
The apartment has been designed exclusively to occupy clients and special guests of the boutique below. Marie Sixtine’s art director Sandrine Place and interior designer Baptiste Legué worked together in designing a space to houses guests for intimate events, workshops, meetings or purely a good night’s rest.
Much like the flagship store, the space promotes a soft, chic style through a smooth colour pallet and delicate materials.
The softly-does-it palette is complemented with a beechwood hut-like structure which cradles the bed, whilst large window nooks promote natural light and terrace views.
