## THE ACCOMMODATION
The Vassily is a large and very luminous two-bedroom apartment, located on the 2nd floor of an 18th century bourgeois building in the heart of Bordeaux's golden triangle and a few steps from Place des Quinconces.
Prime location
The building of classic architecture from the end of the 18th century, is located on a course shaded by lime trees, halfway between Place Tourny and the famous Place des Quinconces, whose 12 hectares of tree-lined esplanade make it the largest place in Europe. This historic heart of the city, which hosts numerous cultural and popular events, is also a public transport hub serving the entire Bordeaux metropolis. This ancient building does not have a lift.
Material and color play
In the large living room, the sober decoration where massive oak or walnut wood, leather and linen come together, is inspired by the works of the Russian painter, naturalized French, Vassily Kandinsky, initiator of the abstract art movement. His famous compositions of geometric shapes in bright colors form a complex, elusive whole with great energy.
Comfort, elegance and environmental consciousness
For furniture and lighting, craftsmanship, French manufacturing and “upcycled” materials were favored.
A Queen size bed and plenty of storage space in the two large bedrooms. Walk-in shower and hairdryer for the bathroom. Separate toilets. Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer, induction hob, toaster, kettle, coffee machine, oven and large refrigerator equip the functional kitchen bathed in natural light.
