Friday takes us to a new house on Ile de Re, an island off the west coast of France, near La Rochelle. Every room opens onto a central courtyard ensuring plenty of natural light. Rustic and simple. Come and see.
Combination of wooden deck and a separate area made of stone slabs.
Love the terracota flooring on the ground level. Subway style white tiles, stainless steel, hanging baskets and an oak butcher fridge for the kitchen.
The kitchen also opens onto the terrace. A marble window sill is ideal for keeping herbs.
A pity these pics are so small. Instead of a wall, the kitchen is separated from the living room with a glass partition.
The stairs in this nautical style bedroom leads up to a small balcony.
I like this bathroom with its soft colours and wood which make it warm. I wouldn't have the soap holder affixed to the wall, you'd get soapy water on the wooden surface which you will have to constantly be wiping off.
A happy weekend to all of you. I'll be back tomorrow!
