Contemporary architecture, this house of 116 m2 of living space blends into the landscape of its 585 m2 plot, just 350 meters from the beach, in the municipality of St-Trojan-Les-bains, on the southern tip of the island of Oléron.

Built in 2010, the house reinterprets the architectural codes of seaside fishing cabins. Like a fishing net, a walkway leads from the street to the living area. Alternating between vertical and horizontal boards, the cladding of this level takes on the traditional bluish-grey color. On either side of the walkway, the narrow and varied openings animate a simple facade. The opposite side, on the other hand, features large bay windows that allow light and views of the canopy to flow in. The "cabin" is extended by a vast platform/pontoon on stilts. Surrounded by a cable guardrail, its complex shape embraces the trees and the boundaries of the plot. Its double level enhances the feeling of a nest protected by the branches of the trees, a sensation that is also found inside the house. The color of the exterior cladding is echoed in the exposed framework that covers the volumes of the 42 m2 living room. Beams, king posts, rafters, and struts stand out against the immaculate white walls and ceilings, as does the sculptural contemporary fireplace suspended between two bay windows, whose flue is cleverly concealed on the outside. The room is largely open through its bays to the terrace that doubles its area. The kitchen space, with its generous island, is delineated by a break in the sloping ceiling that forms a horizontal step-down. Optimizing the use of space, two sleeping areas, unified by their sea rush floor, are distributed on each side of the living room. On one side, there is a true suite with a bathroom, dressing room, and access to the terrace. On the other side, two perfectly symmetrical bedrooms with their private shower room. Each is illuminated by its French door and its original band window. All the openings in the house frame the vegetation. The positioning allowed for the preservation of majestic pines that reach for the sky. Running alongside the external chimney flue, the terrace stairs provide access to the garden and a 4th completely independent bedroom with its own facilities. A large covered area, a sizable enclosed storage space, and a double shelter for a boat or vehicle complete the practical aspects of the house at this level.

A house with an original design for a vacation spirit all year round.
