Inside a Tranquil Paris Home Filled with Meaningful Finds from Around the World

In the heart of Paris, shoe designer Nicholas La Russo Jr. has crafted a tranquil, light-filled sanctuary that reflects a life of travel, beauty, and exquisite attention to detail. Having lived in multiple countries, Nicholas has filled his home with meaningful pieces collected across the world — especially from his journeys throughout Asia — each one chosen not simply as decoration, but as part of a lived-in story.

The palette is soft and calming, a sculptural backdrop for antique finds, natural branches gathered on morning walks, and thoughtfully edited objects that bring quiet joy to the everyday. Step inside and you’ll find a space defined by intention: curated yet effortless, elegant yet deeply personal.

Even his silverware collection has a story — lovingly tended since childhood — a testament to his instinct for beauty long before design became his profession. This is more than a Paris apartment — it is a sanctuary of atmosphere and artistry, where calm and creativity meet in the most understated and timeless way.
