Wooden Villa
French Atlantic Coast

To be finished spring 2018
The Wooden Villa on the French Atlantic Coast spans 250m². Its solids and voids enable the forest to penetrate and the surf to be heard. Huge volumes are linked together beneath a roof with of a rare finesse. This timber loft at the heart of the pine forest is alternately a conservatory and a spacious home for a family with three children.

Apartment GW
Moscow Russia

Finished july of 2016
This wholly custom-made 450m² apartment is an incredible example of integrated design. Curves and edges run and merge in a play of lacquer, marble, wood, coloured and pastel mirrors like secrets revealed with each step. An exquisite residence whose ceiling is a luminous work in its own right, the light shines while sources are concealed, filtering the natural light to make it even more beautiful.

Paris France

concept design 2012
A lake adorning the rooftops of Paris is the unique intention of this penthouse extending over 1500m². Namely a Jacuzzi and a delicate glass building located on the water whose sole function is to enjoy the spectacle of Paris: a 360˚ view that is accentuated by the merging of the water and the sky.

design process 2013-2015
Located between the Mediterranean Sea and a mountainous area, the 400m² first villa is a continuation of the beach with its wavelike sandblasted forms flooded with light and its own swimming pool. A second house, the guesthouse, nestled in the pine forest, provides six bedrooms and spans a total surface of 300m², while a 25m lap pool in the centre defines the space with a view of the mountain.
