Interior designer Marc Lornat stripped two centuries’ worth of “improvements” from his Paris apartment - originally a mid-eighteenth-century carriage house. Here, hand-hewn beams and stone window piers endow the living room with a feeling of history. Behind the seating corner, a raised platform, carpeted in dark brown, comes into its own for small dinners - or gregarious buffets.
