A beautiful marble fireplace, which can be found in the 16th arrondissement, is located on one side of the living room. A sofa from a gallery in Brussels is elegant with Felix Agostini wall lights paired in New York. Baumann Fischer says: “My style is not a style. It is contemporary, old and sometimes somewhere between these two.” He knows what he likes and his taste goes beyond a certain style, place or era. With a certain eye for materials and surfaces, it pays for details with constant precision and clock.
