Opposites attract in the modernist Paris wunderkammer of antiquarian Jean-Claude Binoche, who is partner in the auction house Binoche et Giquello. Atmospheric sepia-tone murals created by Josep Maria Sert (quite possibly additional murals intended for Rockefeller Center that were never hung ) provide an arresting backdrop for Binoche’s mix of mod and muscular Italian furniture, elegant Louis XV and XVI furniture, chinoiserie cabinets and pre-Columbian art. Even a japanned Art Nouveau bed found its way into a corner of the room (swipe to view all photos). Photography by Guillaume de Laubier for German AD.
