Valentin Apartment

Among the 7 wonders of the ancient world, the Hanging Gardens of the Babylon played as inspiration for the hanging bedroom in the Valentin Apartment. This may not qualify as an architectural wonder, but it sure makes you gape your mouth wide open in ‘wonder’ as you walk through the home’s door. French architects Emmanuel Combarel Dominique & Marrec (ECDM) came up with this unique design that maximizes the apartments space in the most creative possible way.


Really? A floating bedroom? Suspended right in the center of the apartment, leaving untouched the floor and the circulations around, the bedroom divides the space, reversing the perception of the atmosphere in the apartment by making private what is usually not : the living room. The suspended cube is made of a metallic structure covered with wooden panels and the entire home is covered in white to add to its modern look.
