Design For Living The Paris Apartment

She begins in the fashionable Marais district, where pure modern design is showcased in the loft-like apartment of contemporary furniture designer Didier Gomez. Kimberley gets a lesson in collecting and displaying black and white photography, a staple in every Paris apartment. Kimberley visits a stunning apartment that mixes industrial finishes with primitive possessions. The treasure-filled apartment of antiques dealer Benjamin Steinitz offers a lesson in eclectic decorating. In Worth the Splurge, gather tips on purchasing and displaying original art. Then Kimberleys own dining room-library gets a dramatic makeover with a French accent.
Breathing new life into the world of design, Design For Living mixes style, history and a few basic principles with a certain magical quality.

Whether visiting a grand chateau or marveling at funky flea market finds, host Kimberly Seldon makes interior design and decorating less confusing - and lots of fun.
Design destinations include Paris, Rome, New York City, South Carolina and Singapore; and guests like Bill Clinton and Erin Brockovich add a bit of celebrity spice to the series.
