On Rue Euryale Dehaynin.

Standing on the corner of Rue Euryale Dehaynin in the 19th arrondissement, this elegant apartment building is a fine example of early 20th-century Parisian architecture. Rows of tall windows, wrought-iron balconies and carefully carved stonework wrap around the curved façade, giving the building a sense of balance from every angle.

Corner buildings like this often catch the eye because they were designed to be seen from two streets at once. The rounded frontage softens the junction while allowing more light into the apartments, creating one of the distinctive architectural features of Paris.

Many Parisian corner buildings were given extra architectural attention by their designers. Prominent locations offered the opportunity to include rounded façades, decorative turrets or domed roof features, helping the building stand out while making the most of additional windows and natural light.

Bon mercredi ! 

“Somehow, Paris always manages to be beautiful, even when it’s just quietly being itself.”
