This house in Paris that was once an abandoned factory now belongs to Aurelie Mathigot a visual artist who decorates her house using an abundance of textiles, crotchet and pattern.
Here, everyday objects are covered in soft fabrics and creativity. In the living room, the couch was covered with a patchwork of fabrics and the piano’s keyboard is covered in a knitted replica of it’s keys. Near the window, as a transition between the exterior and interior, is a bundle of branches sheathed in pieces of knitted and crocheted wool.
In the bathroom tiles and squares of wallpaper are mixed to form a patchwork. The different patterns and colors seem as though the wall had been covered and re-covered with wallpaper year after year. Above the sink, a vintage mirror reflects and increases the illusion of patchwork.
The bedroom is a space of calm in tones of mauves and greys which add to the cloud soft effect of the crocheted bedspread.
