Appartement 26 by Anton Venoir Interiors

Apartment 26 / 321 Chapel St. is an opulent Parisian salon in the heart of Melbourne's design and fashion precinct. There is nothing that will prepare you for the experience behind the standard-issued industrial door, marked "26". Behind it lies the world of Anton Venoir Interiors. A private salon, where guests are invited to enjoy the elegance and luxury of the latest acquisitions and collections.
