I had to have a second look through the pictures - Most of the opulence of the apartment is communicated through paint, drapes, and carpets as well as a lot of over-the-top original detail (that curved door!). but it is not fancy in the way of more modern homes we see on this website (scandi built-ins, recessed lighting, earthy Farrow & ball colours, etc).
