Jaures is a minimalist home located in Marseille, France, designed by Pareil. Initially, a labyrinth of small to medium rooms connected by an expansive hallway gave the impression of a cramped and dim space, despite its generous size and panoramic views that stretch from the urban landscape to the mountains and sea. The redesign sought to transform the compartmentalized layout into a cohesive living environment. By consolidating four separate rooms, the space has been reimagined into an expansive living area that greets visitors with immediate glimpses of the mountainous backdrop upon entry. An artfully designed, wooden bar delineates the open kitchen from the dining and lounge zones without obstructing the vista or flow. Ample natural light now streams through expansive French windows, which also provide access to a terrace, ensuring that illumination reaches deep within the apartment. A strategically angled central wall conceals substantial storage and faces the bathroom, enhancing the area’s utility without sacrificing style. Completing the apartment, the bedrooms are both practical and picturesque, featuring custom-built closets and expansive windows that frame the maritime horizon. This thoughtful renovation not only maximizes space and light but also pays homage to the stunning panoramas that define its location.
