Villa Albertine, awakening a place in Barbizon

In Barbizon, a sleepy former workshop and barn awaited rebirth. Now they've been, with the Villa Albertine.

Barbizon, the perfect balance

This rental house weaves a subtle dialogue between raw materials and soft light, evoking heritage, roots and the future. The backdrop is the village of Barbizon, between art galleries and the national forest of Fontainebleau.

Just 1 hour from Paris, it's the perfect place to meet up with friends or family. In my opinion, it's the perfect place to combine the simple pleasures of a charming little village (bakery, cheese shop, grocery store...) with a real immersion in nature, with the nearby forest to recharge your batteries (or tire out the kids!).

I fell in love with Barbizon, its peaceful atmosphere, its narrow streets lined with workshops and galleries. A timeless escape.

Inside, the renovation is a success: quality fittings, fluid circulation, pleasant volumes and meticulous decoration.
As a lover of the 70s, I loved finding Mario Bellini's famous Camaleonda sofa, a candlestick by Nigel Coates, and the Atomium suspension designed by Hopf & Wortmann for Kundalini.
The raw materials are treated with care, and the sense of detail extends to the (finally) designer toilets by Trone.

In summer, take full advantage of the swimming pool, petanque court and terrace opening onto the garden.

It's a well-thought-out house, designer without being intimidating, where eight people can comfortably get together. It's the ideal place to share a moment together, in an inspiring, well-equipped setting just a stone's throw from Paris.

Bellamant House

A guest house near Toulouse

À 45 minutes de Toulouse, Maison Bellamant est bien plus qu’une maison d’hôtes : c’est un lieu de vie conçu avec le cœur par Stéphanie et Laurent. Installée dans une ancienne ferme réhabilitée avec soin, cette adresse est une invitation à ralentir, savourer et se sentir accueilli comme chez des amis.

Maison Hubert

An urban refuge for wandering tribes

Au cœur d’un quartier calme et central de Bordeaux, Maison Hubert est une maison d’hôtes singulière, pensée comme un cocon urbain pour les familles d’aujourd’hui. Signée Hobo Club, elle allie espace, confort et esthétique joyeuse. C’est l’adresse que je recommande les yeux fermés à quiconque me demande où dormir à Bordeaux : un lieu solaire, vivant, et résolument accueillant.

The workshop

A workshop in the heart of a Provencal village

Beneath the rooftops of the village of Saignon, perched on a rocky spur overlooking the Luberon, lies a charming, tasteful bachelor apartment, designed as an artist's studio. This cozy nest is an invitation to escape, a poetic stopover for those dreaming of a break in Provence.
