On 26 March, the former Paris home of designer Karl Lagerfeld, who will die in 2019, will be auctioned off. Estimated at €5.3 million, the flat’s originality lies in its avant-garde design and its sublime view over the Seine and the Louvre.
The flat of the late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld will be auctioned on 26 March 2023 at the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry, under the direction of Maître Bertrand Savoure of the Althémis notary office. Potential buyers who are unable to attend will still be able to take part in the auction over the Internet and by telephone.
A unique, well-placed flat in the capital
For around ten years before his death in 2019, the great couturier of Chanel, Fendi and his eponymous brand took up residence in a building dating from 1694, located in the 7th arrondissement, more precisely Quai Voltaire on Paris’s Left Bank.
On the third floor, the property offers uninterrupted views over the Seine and the buildings on the right bank, including the Louvre Museum and the Tuileries. A rare and privileged location in the heart of the French capital. In terms of style, this residence, which is worthy of a work of fantasy and has been completely refurbished by Karl Lagerfeld, is an ode to futuristic design. With its pared-back, organic lines, the flat features false white ceilings, grey concrete and resin floors and semi-opaque materials.
