Two buildings linked by a beautiful staircase at the end of a paved courtyard from the 11th century. The volumes are there, the light too. The guiding idea is both to decompartmentalize the living space while infusing it with more cachet and character. For the bathrooms and the kitchen, made-to-measure, old sanitary ware served by designer taps, a little mid-twentieth air. In the rooms, make way for color! And everywhere, install a gas central heating network, giving the illusion of having always been there: exposed pipes and old column radiators. Visit before, during and after the works.
