About the project
Designed by Deux & Un, The villa, which is located high above the city is slightly isolated with a dominant view of the Cévennes, has 550m² of living space over 2.2 hours. The goal was to make a contemporary style villa while fitting into the landscape.
An exterior wall is planned to separate the villa from the road and create passageway circulation. The south-west facing openings open onto the wooden terraces, with the infinity pool on the ground floor, and the SPA area on the ground floor. Their wish for the interior was to make a fairly minimalist project revolving around strong points:
The staircase – the centerpiece of the house – provides access from the ground floor to the ground floor. Accessible and visible from the open front door, it was to be thought of as a massive, light sculpture, integrated into the house, in contrast to the rest of the villa.
The library wall is located in a space opening onto the entrance and the kitchen / dining room. The piece of furniture was thought of as a drawn wall that unites functionality and design. Upstairs, a bespoke bathroom with a central open shower, punctuates the flow of the room.
