Adding character to an new flat in Lausanne, Switzerland
13 years ago
Our flat in Switzerland is in a lovely location but it is very!! modern, with very straight line's and no architectural detail.
Our goal was to make it feel very warm and welcoming and full of detail's that would soften all the hard edge's.
It is a mix of two looks we love, shabby chic and french country!!! with a mix of old and new from mostly France, Switzerland and Canada!!
