Coco In France: Dreamy Parisian Balcony Spotlight

May 20, 2022
  • Share

During a beautiful day in Paris, I stopped to enjoy the view from this dreamy Parisian balcony. I had a busy schedule ahead. My mom and I walked around to go sightseeing. It was my mission to get some great shots of French architecture. My camera roll is full of French art and historic exteriors. I’ll be sharing those soon. This blog is all about this gorgeous balcony!

If you didn’t know already, balconies are very popular throughout the city of Paris. French architecture has incorporated balconies to enhance exteriors. It adds flair while maintaining the elegance of Paris. I love the option of sipping my tea on a balcony every morning. Parisian apartments are on the smaller side so it’s nice to have functional outdoor space.

About the French Balcony

The French balcony was introduced in the 18th century. It’s also known as the Juliet balcony, named after Juliet from Shakespeare’s play. Juliet balconies are surrounded by double or french doors that open inwards, allowing more natural light. They are commonly used in modern architecture.

The above balcony was located at the apartment I stayed in Paris. It’s owned by Anne Marie Midy and Jorge Almada, the owners of the furniture house Casamidy. I couldn’t get enough of the view.

So proud of my dear friend Kristi Bender and her b So proud of my dear friend Kristi Bender and her business partner Wendy Schwartz on the launch of Petal Promenade for @cuff_studio. 👏
This new collection feels like such a beautiful evolution. Inspired by their Manhattan Flower District showroom, it brings together the romance of classic decorative arts with a fresh, modern perspective in a way that feels bold, artistic, and incredibly thoughtful.
If you are attending ICFF 2026, make sure to stop by Booth W1048 and experience Petal Promenade in person. Congratulations, Kristi and Wendy. This collection is truly something special. ✨
Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffe Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffel Tower as your view? These 7 Paris spaces answer that — some hotel suites, some private residences, and each one framing it completely differently. 🫶
A gilded suite where it peers through silk drapes. A terrace set for breakfast with the Tower straight ahead. Contemporary apartments where open French doors bring it almost into the room. Classic Haussmannian grandeur on one end, sculptural modern interiors on the other; same iconic backdrop, seven entirely different ways to live with it.
→ Save this for your next Paris trip or renovation inspo.

This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing N This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing Notre-Dame on the Left Bank, and @double_g_interior_design designed the interior to match that setting without competing with it. ✨
The approach was deliberate restraint: restored cornices kept intact, stained oak floors, limestone tones, a mix of vintage furniture and contemporary silhouettes. Every choice earning its place. The light does the rest. Bouncing off mirrors, moving through the neutral walls across the day. 🔅
→ Save this if you’re working with a Haussmannian space and want to let the architecture lead.

This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for ove This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for over 15 years. @hugotoro_ took it on and designed every single thing inside it himself, from the custom furniture down to the napkin rings and staff uniforms.
That level of control is what makes the result so specific. Rich materials, sculptural forms, cinematic lighting but nothing feels decorative for its own sake. Every detail was considered as part of one complete vision, and you feel it in every room. ✨

Natural light is the one thing every room has in c Natural light is the one thing every room has in common here, but the window shape, wall material, and time of day make each one feel like an entirely different experience. ☀️
It’s a reminder that light isn’t just a condition in a room. It’s a design decision.
→ Save this if you’re thinking about how light works in your own space.
