Project Name: Summer House French Riviera

Location: Ramatuelle – South of France

Date Completed: 2016

Interior Designer: Dôme Project Interiors

This sumptuous residence, located on one of the prettiest bays in the Mediterranean, originally had a Provencal style. Following a complete renovation, it now features its own unique universe. The interior design of this residence overlooking the sea was inspired by the majestic beauty offered by the breath-taking view of the Mediterranean landscape, in order to recreate the joyful and care-free atmosphere associated with the seaside.

In this prestigious villa, coral forms an essential element of the backdrop, presented in a subtle and original way. For example, it is delicately displayed in the form of mosaics, in patterns on the silk carpet and on the lavish lights. Light effects were also a major feature of this interior architecture project to create maximum brightness in every room. This luxury residence has been designed so that each ray of light is reflected in mother-of-pearl panels. In the hallway, a chandelier of over three metres in height, created by Dôme Project Interiors and strewn with blown glass tassels, cascades down from the ceiling. The sea also makes its appearance on made-to-measure blue shagreen furniture and on the door handles which are loyal to this sea theme. Every room in the house has its own colour code, such as shades of blue, coral or celadon for the bedrooms. The walls and sideboards in the bathrooms are entirely covered with mirrors. Superb paintings by the artist Alex Weinstein (Leslie Sacks gallery), known for his incredible mastery of blue, contribute to the soothing and elegant atmosphere of this property.

The soft tones chosen in materials such as blue or coral soothes residents the second they pass the threshold of the house. The designers have also brought a very bright side to the bathrooms by creating mirrored furniture that brings a lot of clarity. An organic touch is found in the lights and the handles reminding the branching of the coral.
