Appartement de Boris Vian, Writer residence in Cité Véron, 18th arrondissement of Paris, France.

The apartment features a large terrace that connects to the neighboring residence, offering views of the surrounding Montmartre district architecture.

Boris Vian and his wife Ursula moved to this third-floor apartment in 1953, discovering it while exploring former dressing rooms of the Moulin Rouge cabaret.

The residence contains an extensive collection of jazz records, surrealist paintings, and musical instruments that belonged to the French writer and musician.

The apartment, located at coordinates 48.884593, 2.332127, remains a private property managed by the Fond'action Boris-Vian association since 1992.

The bathroom demonstrates Vian's engineering skills, as he created a hole in the wall to accommodate a bathtub in the limited space.
