une chambre de bonne

this goes along with the previous post where i mentioned a blog by the title of tales from the chambre de bonne. a chambre de bonne is a tiny studio-like space up on the top floor of parisian apartment buildings. therefore it is the least expensive room in the building though this is paris, so it's still expensive. it is translated to be the maid's room (perhaps a long time ago that was it's purpose).

so googled i did, and came across this on apartment therapy. a couple had transformed two chambres de bonne that they owned into one guest apartment. it is adorable.
